Buzz: Bye Bye, Glavine, Hello Castillo
In Newsday, Ken Davidoff explains why free-agent Tom Glavine is most likely to either sign with the Braves or Nationals, or just retire.
Davidoff also tackles the team’s potential options at second base, such as
free-agent David Eckstein and Geoff Blum, while writing of free-agent Luis Castillo: “They want him back, and he seemed happy during his brief stay.”
Earlier this week in the Daily News, Adam Rubin reported that Castillo underwent knee surgery and will be 100 percent by spring training.
Rubin added: “The Mets are expected to make a strong push to re-sign him.”
…as i said earlier in the week, lord knows he needed to have his knee cleaned out…his ability to run hard, slide, get up, look to be in total, unbearable pain, then seconds later sprint to third as though nothing was wrong, which was followed by more wincing and hobbling around, only to dash home without missing a beat was amazing to me…he’s a perfect solution for second base, in that he plays great defense, he works well with Jose Reyes and can bat second…i just worry about those knees…
