India's OPS bottomed out on May 12th at .616
Since then (not counting the one PA in today's ongoing game) he's slashed .316/.435/.509 with 10 walks to just 9 strikeouts and 3 HRs. He's looked even better than he did to start the season. Good on India to take advantage of the second chance with Senzel's injury.

India just homered again today. Will be interesting to see how this shakes out over the next month or so with Senzel still out. Things change but as of right now, India has put some distance between him and Senzel.
Will be interesting to see how they manage 3rd, 2b, CF, SS and 1b, when everyone is healthy.

India is starting to look more and more like the real thing. Better at bats and adjustments than just about any hitter on the team right now. He’s definitely one of this season’s bright spots (with Winker, Cast, and the catching duo—on the offensive side).

While both Stephenson and India have had their slumps I think both look like they could be above average MLB players for years to come.

Jonathan India is going to make all star games. I’ve been watching him play since he was a FR at UF. I have supreme confidence in him. I was one of the few who did since he started slowly in the minors. He’s the goods.
I really like Ty as well. And we’re actually starting to stockpile some talent in the minors. Need more, clearly, especially with the fact that we all can see SenzIL is a bust.
