Clue to Geary's struggles at the bottom of an article

So we get this closing line from Alyson Footer's recap of G34...

Cooper indicated Geary may be dealing with biceps tendinitis and could be checked by doctors in the near future.

It would certainly make sense. So far Geary this year has thrown 20.2 innings. At no point has his ERA been below 3.00. Six appearances have been 4-out appearances, but he has thrown 10 or fewer pitches just three times. He has had one perfect appearance, giving up no hits or walks. Just one - out of sixteen games.

This is obviously not the Geary of 2008, so if he's hurt, it would make sense.
