Desmond Jennings goes deep twice
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com
(6/11/13) Rays outfielder Desmond Jennings homered twice Tuesday during a win over the Red Sox. Jennings went deep in the second inning off Jon Lester for a solo shot and hit another solo blast in the fifth off Jose De La Torre.

Jennings led off for the Rays and finished 3 for 5 with three runs scored and two RBI. He now has eight home runs on the year. He's batting .254.

Jennings has begun to warm again and now has three homers in his last five games with five RBI over that span. That said, he's struggled in June overall. He's gone 9 for 36 (.250) over nine games.
Desmond Jennings slumping in June

(6/11/13) Rays outfielder Desmond Jennings went 2 for 7 during Monday's 14-inning loss to Boston. Jennings has hits in seven of his last 10 games for Tampa Bay and is batting .247 on the season. 

Jennings has struggled since the beginning of June as he's gone just 6 for 31 (.194) this month over eight games. He's struck out 10 times and has just a .212 on-base percentage over that stretch of games.

(6/7/13) Rays outfielder Desmond Jennings provided all the offense his team would need Friday in a 2-1 win over the Orioles.

Jennings clubbed a two-run homer in the seventh inning, his sixth of the year. He finished the game 1 for 3. 

Jennings' home run is his first since May 21. He is hitting just .176 in the month of June after hitting .282 in May. 

Desmond Jennings collecting hits regularly
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com
(6/6/13) Rays outfielder Desmond Jennings had his third triple and drove in a run for the second straight game Wednesday against the Tigers. Since May 3, Jennings has failed to get a hit in just 3 of 26 games.

Jennings is batting .284 (31 for 109) with two home runs, three triples, seven doubles, 14 runs and 15 RBI in his last 26 games. He also has two stolen bases, nine walks and 19 strikeouts in that span.

His batting average has climbed from .218 to .252 in his last 26 games.

Desmond Jennings responding well so far
by Scott White | Senior Fantasy Writer
(5/29/13) In two games since manager Joe Maddon called him out for his lack of plate discipline, Rays outfielder Desmond Jennings has two walks. In the second of those games, Tuesday against the Marlins, he had three hits and a double.

So far, so good.

Maddon's insistence that Jennings wait for his pitch and "accept his walks" could potentially backfire if directed at a player with no history of plate discipline, but Jennings was a high-walk guy throughout his minor-league career, compiling a .381 on-base percentage compared to a .294 batting average. He also showed good plate discipline in spring training, drawing nine walks compared to only eight strikeouts, which is part of the reason I pegged him as a breakout candidate.

Obviously, we can't draw any conclusions from only two games, but Jennings' walk rate is something to keep an eye on going forward. He won't meet his potential if he doesn't walk. It's as much a part of his profile as his speed is.
