    I do!

    I root for Juan Castro just like I root for Pokey Reese, Jack Wilson, and every other banjo-hitter with a golden glove. They’re not going to be able to star on your team, but watching them make a play in the field can be electrifying.

    Not to mention that these kinds of guys tend to be very relatable human beings. So good for Juan Castro, in making the effort to be in game shape early to play for his nation’s team.

    Game shape for that team…wow that’s a tough one. Who did he beat out for the spot “Rafael Belliard”.

    All I know is that a guy named Geronimo Gin plays for Mexico. Geronimo Gin. Apperently they ran out of Mexican players and got some proffesional wrestlers to play. Who are they gonna draft next..Rey mysterio? As far as Jaun Castro goes, he never won a gold glove…and he never will! He is a joke.

    Yawn…speaking of wrestling, quite the tag-team commentary we’ve got going all of a sudden.

    Of course Castro will never win a Gold Glove. First he would need to play only one position. Second he would have to have a starting job. Third he would have to be a good enough hitter for voters to notice him. I doubt that all of those things are going to spontaneously reverse themselves anytime soon.

    Actually I think we would be the tag-team champs if there was a belt.
    And you just made his point…who cares or notices Castro, and if he got enough plate appearances all they wwould notice is his .189 averagh.
