If Pedro's control was off I might be able to attribute it to cold weather. Cold weather certainly doesn't take a guy that throws 98 mph and turn him into a guy that throws 86 mph. I just can't except that. I used to pitch and cold weather doesn't affect your velocity after you've warmed up. Also, for every hitter that starts slowly in April you can probably name some others that get off to quick starts historically. If Pedro starts throwing heat again I suspect it will be a rest/injury issue more than temperature.
