I think you're being a little over critical. He's hitting over .300 in his last 30 games, he's had a few strikeouts, but it's not an alarming number.

Good hitters go through spells like this, hell Correa was at 25% through the end of May, and he's a borderline great hitter.

I mean the guy only has 140 plate appearances

ETA: since August 4th, he's hit .313/.374/.563 152 wRC+ 9.2%BB 22.4%K

Were you concerned with Correa having a 25% K rate through the first 2 months?

And since he's been a problem, who do you suggest putting in the 2 hole? Becuase I'd not like to remove our 3rd best hitter over the last month from that spot

I don't miss any of his ABs.

My interest in his success is almost as great as it is for the team at this point.

But, striking out in almost 90% of games played isn't a spell. And no, I don't want him out of the lineup over it, and I like him in the 2 hole.

Bregs' K/BB ratio has always been superb. If I thought he was K'ing more as a result of hitting for power, no "issue". I was also impatient about his 1 for 32 start, so maybe I'm just repeating that over the quality of his ABs?
