Cincinnati Reds: Should the team be concerned about Jesse Winker?

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Jesse Winker is hitless in 13 at-bats thus far in 2019. This leaves Winker with the obvious goose egg and an on=base percentage of .071 thanks in part to his one walk in the previous series. Throw in a Cactus League performance that saw Winker hit .176, striking out 10 times with only 5 walks and it begs the question; should the Reds be concerned?

Jesse Winker has a career .292 batting average and near .400 on-base-percentage. This is the same Jesse Winker, just like Nick Senzel, has hit at every level going back to his days at various levels of the minor leagues.
