Has he just been unlucky, or is he not likely to return to last year's form?

Thanks

That's the problem with small sample sizes - anything can happen and analysis is next to impossible.

his K and BB rates are close to last season but his LD% is off the charts high, resulting in a ton of hits. It has to regress, but it is not possible to really tell how much of the LD% is bad pitching and how much is bad luck.
