I was glad to see him go to LF. I think doing that regurally is the only way he bats .250 this year.

Do you remember Carpenter having a 71 wRC in June of 2015? He did that in a season where he was worth over 5 wins. Players are going to have bad stretches. They're going to decline with age, and they're going to fight their swings at times, but it doesn't mean that they will just suddenly lose everything. Give it time. He will be fine.
