Goes yard twice Monday
DeJong went 2-for-4 with two home runs, a walk, five RBI and three runs scored in Monday's 12-5 win over the Nationals.
Impact
The shortstop took Joe Ross deep in the second and fifth innings, with the latter shot a grand slam that blew the game wide open. DeJong has a modest six-game hitting streak going that includes three homers over the last three days, pushing his slash line up to .189/.317/.472.

Strikeouts, lack of XBH hurt line
DeJong, who went 1-for-3 with two strikeouts in a loss to the Phillies on Sunday, has a five-game hitting streak but just a .163/.293/.347 slash across 58 plate appearances.
Impact
DeJong's trio of home runs have prevented the early portion of his season from being a complete fantasy wasteland, but he's done little else to redeem himself to those who invested some draft capital in him. Even the struggling shortstop's current five-game hit streak is comprised entirely of one-hit outings and four singles outside of a solo homer. As was often the case last season, lack of consistent contact has been a pervasive problem for DeJong -- he's currently sporting a career-worst 34.5 percent strikeout rate.

Not in Wednesday's lineup
DeJong isn't starting Wednesday's game against the Nationals, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.
Impact
DeJong had started every game to begin the year, but he's been in a slump recently, as he's hit .065 with five walks, five runs and 15 strikeouts in the last nine games. Edmundo Sosa will take his place at shortstop Wednesday, batting eighth.

Bumps down in order amid struggles
DeJong, who went 1-for-4 with two strikeouts in a loss to the Nationals on Monday, operated out of the No. 6 spot in the order for the first time this season.
Impact
The struggling shortstop is now slashing .114/.262/.286 across 42 plate appearances, leading to his lowest slotting in the lineup yet this season. DeJong's leadoff single in the seventh Monday snapped a seven-game hitless drought, and while his abnormally low .105 BABIP certainly hasn't helped his cause, neither has the 27-year-old's 33.3 percent strikeout rate.

Cracks two homers
DeJong went 2-for-3 with two walks, two solo home runs and three total runs scored in Saturday's loss to the Reds.
Impact
Tyler Mahle baffled most of the St. Louis lineup, but not DeJong. Batting out of the cleanup spot, DeJong homered in the second inning and again in the fourth, his first two long balls of the 2021 campaign. He should have plenty of RBI opportunities this season batting directly behind Paul Goldschmidt and Nolan Arenado.

Heating up at plate
DeJong, who was hitless over his first 23 Grapefruit League at-bats, credits a pep talk he received from manager Mike Shildt early this week for his strong performances since, Ben...
Impact
Shildt reportedly reminded DeJong that "no one wins a Grapefruit League batting title" in an effort to loosen the shortstop up at the plate, and the messaging seems to have seeped through. DeJong subsequently homered and singled off staff ace Jack Flaherty in a simulated game Tuesday, singled and walked against the Astros on Wednesday and recorded a two-run blast and a single off Marlins starter Pablo Lopez on Thursday. That still leaves the shortstop's spring average at .179, but it gives him a much bigger boost in confidence. "Just getting back to myself," said DeJong, who has made a small change in his stance to be more upright. "Getting my timing back. And I want to thank Mike for pulling me aside and telling me he wasn't worried about me. It's just one of those springs."

Still waiting on first hit
DeJong is 0-for-4 with a strikeout across his first two Grapefruit League games.
Impact
The slugging shortstop is off to a slow start in his quest to prove he's still got the pop that led to a career-high 30 home runs in 2019, but it's the tiniest of sample sizes. DeJong's average saw a boost from 2019's .233 to .250 last season, but he also slugged a career-low .349 with just nine extra-base hits (six doubles, three homers) across 174 plate appearances. The 27-year-old's strikeout rate also rose to a career-high 28.7 percent last season despite the improvement in batting average, so he'll look to achieve that power resurgence while also improving his contact rate.
