I think Carter Hawkins might be an idiot. The team has received 85 PA from Hosmer who has a 79 wRC+, has been rostering Nick Madrigal and Edwin Rios all season (both sub-replacement level), and actually used Luis Torrens at DH earlier this year.
Christopher Morel put up 1.6 fWAR in MLB last year, and has a 214 wRC+ in AAA this year. He's slugging 0.821. Matt Mervis has a 140 wRC+ in AAA. And they're just continuing to roll with a bunch of no-upside trash on the MLB team. Hosmer, their DH, tried and failed to drop a sac bunt with two runners on in the 9th last night.
When asked about it, Hawkins said he didn't want to deplete organizational depth this early in the season. Which should be a fireable offense, given that the organizational depth he's talking about is sub-replacement level and costing the MLB team actual wins.
