Stanton looks worse than ever, completely washed, and there's still three more years left after this year

He's barely a platoon player at this point. He should be benched

It's a bit early to say that Stanton is completely finished as a player.
He's clearly not elite anymore. More than that, he's not all-star level anymore either.

Tremont is probably right.
When Jasson Dominguez returns, his bat has a much higher upside (provided he shows improvement as a young player)

At that point, Stanton becomes more of a JD Martinez type player -- a guy who probably isn't worth keeping in the lineup except against left-handed pitching.

Edit - It is worth noting that Stanton has been a great clubhouse guy and teammate and I think he's a total professional. Who knows how he will handle his eventual demotion from full-time play. But I am a fan of him.
