Are there any Barry Zito believers out there?

Can anyone think of another player in the last 20 years that has gone from elite to horrendous this quickly. 2 caveats:
- Take out players who were injured (Kevin Brown, Hampton, Schmidt, etc...)
- Take out the obvious Roid Boys (Juan Gone, Gagne)

Roberto Alomar.

David Cone, and there are others. But most are in their mid to late thirties and their falloffs were caused by age.

Can I say Billy Butter without being banned from the Cafe? Once the only man ever to hit 3 HRs in a game in only a 2ABs, he has now been reduced to a singles hitting pedestrian.
