Looking for some input, because I don't have a great grasp on the mechanics. In my league my starting catcher was off to a horrible start in April, by the time the 1/4 mark in the season hit, I had been platooning him with our back-up catcher. I recently sent him down to AAA to hopefully rediscover his swing.

He has never been a great hitter, but even this was well below his standard. He is currently making $2M and is arbitration eligible. My question is how long should I keep him at AAA? Should I expect results after 7 games? 14? Should I wait to recall him until he shows strong stats in the minors? I'm not crazy about spending $2m for him to find himself.

Wondering what others have done with players like this.
