Craig said after the first game that they were gonna sit him for a few days

it's probably both physical and mental. In addition to the hand I think he hurt his knee worse than he acknowledged when he fouled a ball off it. those two injuries probably affected his swing and his bat speed. The continued struggles then got into his head
they should have put him on the 10 day IL 3-4 weeks ago
