I think that's actually the prevailing thought on these boards which makes it even more frustrating that he is still playing. Would rather have Alejo Lopez or Barrero out there. Heck even Schrock who is a career 3 for 6 vs LHP. Pretty sure Lester isn't getting a heater by him even. Anybody and I mean anybody but Aquino. At least Akiyama provides competent defense even. He also has a reverse career split and is .718 vs LHP. Sometimes Bell and Co. are so slow on the uptake on what seems like he obvious choice its maddeningly frustrating...
Aquino BA over the last 7, 14, 28 and 365days...

And yet he still gets starts for whatever reason. Might as well just start another pitcher in the outfield.
