We’ll see (eventually). I think the reason’s it’s worth a shot are 1) Castillo was very good as recently as 2009 when he hit .302 and on-based .387 and 2) the other choices to play the position are really bad offensively. If Castillo is even a little healthy and can handle 2B defensively, he’ll at least get on base some.

Maybe the other guys will look at him and see themselves in a couple of years (or sooner) and get it moving. Rollins, for example. But then, maybe Castillo has been a wreck in part because he has been in that train wreck of a clubhouse known as the NY Mets. (I’ll tell you this: I’d rather have him than I would Reyes!) Maybe here he will find something he had no reason to find over there.

Charlie not happy with the guys who are supposed to be intersted in playing right field.

Doc is READY. But I about swallowed my hot dog when that ball almost hit him square in the face.

I say we get some *dudes on the field and play some **dudeball for real. Let’s get this April thing going, already.

*Not Lenny Dykstra
**Still not that
