When this kind of scenario happens in real life, there's sometimes a personal storyline behind it - a painful divorce (his wife discovered all the tail the guy pulled during his 2018 campaign, and is now taking him to the cleaners in the middle of the season), a child with a severe illness being treated behind the scenes (this happened with JD Drew in his first year in Boston, I believe), or the death of a parent.
Or, perhaps he just caught something from one of his roadies (statistically, probably in Baltimore), and he's symptomatic right now.
Slumps happen, but really impressive, severe ones weave into the fabric of real life once you overlay your own backstory a little bit onto some of these players.
