Wow did Castro get a break....all the calls going the Bucs way tonight, but can't do anything with them

Castro strikes out again....he has that look on his face like he knows he's about ready to get sent down, and I really think he'd hate to go back to AA

OK. I’ve seen enough of Castro

Send him back to the minors and have him watch Clint Eastwood’s movie “Trouble with the Curve”

Bucs go quietly in order, but at least they do it kind of quickly to get this game moving along

I was looking at the two logical options to bring up, Marcano or Tucker, and neither one of them are hitting. But he needs a reset, he is looking completely lost at the plate, and now he's making mental errors. He gave them a good look, and he looks like a player. For a guy who jumped from AA, Castro sure has looked like a big leaguer most of the time.

Some good news. D-Backs won

Bucs can cut the D-Backs lead for the #1 pick to 3 games

Speaking of which, Park stays in the game at second, Castro sits it out the rest of the way in the double switch

Well, unless there's a possibility of another scenario in the draft next year like the Bucs had for this one, I'd rather they just win more games.
