I was wondering what he was up to, as we have no bench. Sadly, looks like he’s struggling this season. Aside from this weekend and the power surge, is there any reason to think he could be a useful bench piece this year or next?

Honestly, I think he's at risk of being dropped off the 40-man this offseason (Nealy too). Obviously if he keeps this going, that changes things a lot.

Southisene, Lumpuy, Cepeda and Lovich all getting hits in the same game? Another XBH for Lumpuy? An XBH for Southisene!?

Picture it! Myrtle Beach, 2025.  The waves were cresting, and a guy named Ty was swinging a big stick. Good times, my friends. Good times.

Lumpuy since 6/13

.291/.356/.481, 147 wRC+, 29.9% K rate

Lumpuy since 6/28

.340/.400/.600, 189 wRC+, 21.8% K rate

SSS still but he's seemingly turning himself into a dude
