Don't wake him up, he might do something stupid.

I agree that Eloy does not belong in the outfield.

Then hopefully Andrew Vaughn isn't still hitting .226 with a .709 OPS and either Adam Eaton or Adam Engel are completely healthy and producing, and Eloy starts mashing right away without being rusty from being off for so long, and doesn't re-injure himself. Otherwise, it would be foolish to bench the best DH this team has had since Jim Thome.

Who should be the DH then?

Liam is the closer.

Nice!

I think I may love Billy Hamilton!

7-4!!

But he calls a ball way wide a strike on the next pitch.

Lamb!

Angel calls a strike a ball then a ball a strike.

Nice job, Jose!

That'll work!

No DP please.

Tied!

Madrigal has been a disappointment on defense up to this point.

Mercedes carrying the team with his big bat!

Nice Jose!

Just no DP please.

When we need a walk he hits into a DP.

Sportsmanship. ?

Yermin my man!!!

As @Capn12 posted, his overall May stats are still pretty good. Of course it was expected his stat line would drop significantly from his red hot start, but how about waiting another month or two to see where the rookie is going to level off before declaring him a failure. Hits in April count as much as hits in May, and again his May hasn't been that bad.

When you start out hitting over .400, your stats have nowhere to go but down even if you're Ted Williams.

A lot of that going around today.
