The Logic of Frank Robinson

Now that Cristian Guzman is hitting .204, don't we have to bench him? Frank Robinson has said that he wants to save Guzman the embarrassment of having the first digit in his batting average be a "1." Given that Guzman is hitting above The Mendoza Line now and given that the odds of Guzman raising his batting average to the point that the second digit is a "1" are about the same as the odds of a dry summer in Washington, isn't the only rational course of action to bench him for the rest of the season?
