Davey will bench him for the next three days

Ha!

Like Harper last year...Rendon is here and stays here. A genuine hitter.

I was just outside Bellevue, OH when I saw Rendon hit a dinger.  My grin might have been bigger than his.

This. I'm slightly concerned about Zimmermann and the AL dominating him.

That concern should be slight.  I mean we're still talking about a guy who is 9-3 with a 2.44 ERA.  Even an ace can have a couple bad games.  It's likely just a coincidence that the two worst were in his AL starts.  If you look at his stuff yesterday the movement on his fastball was just not there like it usually is and that isn't an AL thing.  It's just a guy really struggling without his best stuff.  As much as Zimmermann's secondary pitches have improved his fastball is still his go-to pitch and when that's off he'll be off.
