News: Castillo delays Return

by Matthew Cerrone on August 23rd, 2008 at 4:46 pm

Luis Castillo told the Mets he needs a few more days before bing activated from the disabled list today.

Interesting, in that the rule stipulates he must be activated now that his 20-day rehab allotment has expired, unless, of course, he states that he needs more time – in which case the Mets can keep him on the disabled list.

So, I wonder if, for the good of the team, knowing a player like Argenis Reyes would likely have been demoted to clear room, Castillo chose to stay on rehab.
