2014, he definitely had a rough August.

2015, he was pitching home games in a park that's a pretty bad fit for him (Mickey Mouse park is pretty awful for lefty flyball pitchers). This tracks with him having the highest HR/FB rate in his career in the second half.

Outside of 3 starts against RH-dominated lineups at MM, he had a 2.61 ERA over the rest of the second half.
