I think #2 should have been written:
" 2. Which formerly awesome Major League pitcher can the blame loss of shoulder strength on one drug-addled incident where he had to carry a passed-out date up three flights of stairs? His fastball hasn't been the same since. And he's a total pothead."
The pot didn't cause shoulder problems, but the writer probably wanted to throw that tidbit in too and ended up writing it badly. As for the answer, I don't follow baseball much, but with the source being NY, I'd guess it's a guy who spend time with the Mets or Yankees.
