that is idiotic. when we handed the 20 year old the starting 3b spot with the Boston Red Sox we all signed up for the valleys that come along with it. demoting him does nothing. we agreed to allow him to suffer, adjust, suffer, adjust at the ML level. DD made that decision for us last year but it now has to be "owned".
Personally i believe he will improve greatly the next couple years on the Defense side and he will absolutely learn to lay off the high FB.
