Is it time to drop him? I have Lawrie in my 3B slot and Youk was in Utility. I put Youk on DL and moved LaHair in Utility slot now. Was thinking of dropping both Youk and A. Vizcaino (both on DL) and picking up Capuano or Mily for extra pitching.

I don't know if I'd outright drop him just yet…you can stash him on the DL so he's not taking a roster spot and then monitor his health and his timetable to return. He's generally got such a good approach the plate I have faith in him to straighten things out, but he's been dinged up and a disappointment the last couple of seasons (2011/2012).

But hang on to him…maybe he comes back hot and you can move him at some point. Plus we don't if LaHair will fall off a cliff at some point and hit .220 for the rest of the year. Not looking that way, but you never know.

DL'ing Youk would be the best thing to do.
If Middlebrooks is still available you might think about having him take Youk's roster spot though. He should get a heavy dose of playing time for Boston.
