I really don't want to trade Hosmer. I don't think they should be trading ML pieces at this point. They should be trading minor league talent -- although I'd prefer to hang on to Myers, too, to replace Frenchy.
I guess you could trade Hosmer, move Butler to 1B, Myers to RF and "find" a DH (or I guess "find" another 1B). Actually, I fear if they trade Hosmer that will just give them the excuse to keep playing Frenchy and put Myers at 1B.
But I still have a lot of faith in Hosmer, he was good his rookie year. If he had struggled like this his rookie year, I'd be a lot more nervous about him. But I'm very confident he will bounce back.
