Not really. Castro doesn’t have the stamina to be an everyday catcher for a full season.

Castro makes sense, no matter who he goes after to be the starter (or other half of a platoon). Hey, you need a back up C, right? Don’t want to see ALomar again!

Im suspicious that Omar going the cheap defensive route at C means he’s saving his budget for something bigger..

4 mil for 2 years castro? no brainer. its nothing to commit that for their payroll and if he turns into a real starter than they should be able to sign him or at worst, get some draft picks out of him.

I’m in a minority when I say this, but forget Castro. He’s proven incapable of being healthy all season for 3 years. Get a healthy, defensive minded back up like Jose Molina.

Maybe Omar’s plan is to start Castro with Torrealba as his backup?
