Angled Pad wear

I'm bumping this thread up again.

I looked at the race pads I swapped out, and one of the pairs has a slightly angled wear. Just barely, but noticable. It's not angled in the longitudinal direction of the pad, but across the horzontal (meaning more of the pad is touching the outside of the rotor than the smaller-radius inside surface near the hub)

What causes this? Can it be the caliper pin sticking or not being lubricated enough? How can you check for partially frozen calipers?

No matter what, I'm still going to use them as is, but if I can do something to fix it that's pretty easy, that's really what I'm looking for.

thanks
