Brandon Webb - flattening out

Diamondbacks starter Brandon Webb got shelled Tuesday against the Oakland A's, giving up seven runs on nine hits in less than four innings. Webb's been struggling recently, but given the numbers that The Arizona Republic dug up prior to the outing, they must've suspected more problems were on the way. It appears Webb can't get the ball to dance like he did earlier in the year.

Fantasy Impact: It will be interesting to see how this chart changes once the movement of Webb's pitches are charted for this last outing. If the movement isn't there, he likely loses his ace status.
