New York Yankees: Is Aroldis Chapman losing his flame?

Error 0:

New York Yankees’ closer Aroldis Chapman has dominated MLB hitters since his debut in 2010 and is notorious for his high heater. On September 24, 2010, Chapman set the Major League record for fastest pitch ever recorded which was at a whopping 105.1MPH.

In his ten year tenure, Chapman holds a career 2.23 ERA and has 883 strikeouts in 535.2 innings pitched. He consistently finishes among the leaders in closers every year and always holds the most saves on the Yankee staff.

Even though Chapman continues to dominate hitters, I’ve noticed there’s something different about the way he pitches.
