I guess conversely if the player has options available and isn't going to refuse the assignment, you could always send them down to the minors for a month or two...

TBH in the case of Betts in this case, depending on the accuracy of that scouting report I might wonder if he's actually taken a talent hit. Half a year is still within the realm of very bad luck (especially if combined with a slump) but it's also within the realm of "this guy suddenly lost it".
