On the Mound
Both the starters and relievers have suffered in the seven-week meltdown. The ERA for the rotation has risen .31 and the bullpen has seen it's ERA climb by 2.11. The rotation has given up a .294 batting average since June 21, a 12-point hike, and the bullpen has seen the batting average for the opposition jump from .249 to .284.

FYI
A team that has prided itself on defense has gone from ranking fourth in the NL in fielding percentage prior to June 21 to 11th in fielding since.
