I feel like I am a great player evaluator, but I was badly wrong about Castillo, he had been a bust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same thing with not calling up Yermin. Seems that they have determined that he is a non-prospect and isn't even worthy of ABs in meaningless September games.

Literally just asked what the point was of calling him up if they aren't going to play him. Not sure why you need to be a dick about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Just now, CaliSoxFanViaSWside said: Cy Sheffield through 3, The approach is baffling. Taking fastballs for strikes and swinging at every offspeed pitch out of the zone. It's one of those games that really makes you wonder what the hell the game plan is going into the game.

CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Yay Castillo up with 2 on and 2 out. Does it count as a reverse jinx if I mention it's a reverse jinx ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, but it won't be as frequent as my usual posting here.. lol. Tied 3-3, 2Q. (Pineiro just drilled a 40 yarder).

Perhaps they are rewarding him for a good minor league season. Perhaps they are trying to give the die-hards something to talk about. In any case their actions speak volumes about how they really feel about him. I'd ask you the same question ... If they're not going to play him, why did they bother to call him up?

Its not like they need to fill the roster spot, like they'll have to next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
