In Jerry Manuel's brief two-month tenure as Mets
manager, he lost his closer (Billy Wagner), two starters
(John Maine), second baseman (Luis Castillo) and a pinch hitter/utility man (Marlon Anderson). He also adopted a (un)healthy list of injured troops including Ryan Church, Pedro Martinez, ...
John Maine has been put on the Disabled
List due to a bone spur in his right
shoulder. He will be replaced on the roster by Luis Castillo , who has been activated from the 15–day disabled list. …so, i guess this means Argenis Reyes ...
Well this makes no sense. With John Maine
on the DL, it made it much easier for
the Mets to bring Luis Castillo back from his extended stay on the disabled list. This leaves the Mets with Castillo and Argenis Reyes , who can pretty much only play second base, and Damion Easley , who can play first, second and left. Too bad Daniel Murphy and Nick Evans are seemingly entrenched in left, and ...
The New York Mets have placed John Maine
on the disabled list. Maine is suffering from a
bone spur in his right shoulder. Meanwhile, Luis Castillo has been activated and will start tonight against the Houston Astros.
Just been reported. Luis Castillo has been activated.
Will we see Jon Niese in his start? Or
Brian Stokes
After balking at a Saturday return, Luis Castillo
could be activated as early as today, with the
expectation he would start against Astros righthander Brian Moehler. Manager Jerry Manuel said last week that he expected to use Castillo as his everyday ...
In Jerry Manuel's nearly seven years as a
big-league manager, no player had ever come to him
and begged out of the starting lineup. Until yesterday. Manuel said Luis Castillo, in a surprising move that actually could benefit the Mets, asked to...
... won't be today . I guess this
will be cause for celebration for those fans who
somehow became convinced that the veteran second baseman is the Antichrist. As for me, I actually believe a Castillo who is reasonably healthy would benefit this ...
Luis Castillo has asked out of tonight's game
and will not be activated from the DL. This
can be taken one of two ways: On one hand, this could be taken as a sad move, where he just wants to keep sitting and collect his money. I don't think that's the case, as I think (hope) it's more likely that he's just doesn't feel ready and feels bad that he'd be taking the spot of another player, and ...
Luis Castillo will not be activated today. He
spoke with Jerry Manuel just before we met with
the manager. Manuel said Castillo said he needed a few extra days to get up to speed. He didn't want to join a team that was playing so well if he didn't ...
The New York Mets have decided to hold
off activating Luis Castillo for tonight’s game against the
Houston Astros. Castillo is expected to wait until next week.
DAILY NEWS SPORTS WRITER Saturday, August 23rd 2008,
8:56 AM Luis Castillo is scheduled to play second
base Saturday night for the first time since July 2, when a strained left hip flexor sent him to the DL. Castillo lost a few pounds while ...
In a stunning but easy to decipher turnaround,
Mets manager Jerry Manuel said Luis Castillo will not
only return Saturday but will get his second base job back.
Prior to Friday’s game, New York Mets interim
manager Jerry Manuel announced the team will activate Luis
Castillo for Saturday’s game against the Houston Astros.
Groan ! Luis Castillo is scheduled to return
tomorrow, as the Mets will be back at "full
strength" for the first time in a while. I know the Mets are paying this guy $25 million, but I honestly think the team would be a lot better off cutting this guy loose. Damion Easley and Argenis Reyes have done more in his absence than Castillo ever could. Reyes even reminds me of Castillo, with his ...
Luis Castillo will return to Shea Stadium Friday
too. The Mets second baseman is expected to workout
before a decision is made on whether to activate him or send him to Port St. Lucie for an extended rehab assignment.
Jerry Manuel confirmed that Ryan Church should be
in right field at Shea on Friday night, after
a final game with Binghamton. “He’s healthy, playing well, obviously getting the at-bats that he needs,” Manuel said. “And he ...
Luis Castillo is expected to make his first
start at NYSEG Stadium for the Binghamton Mets tonight.
Castillo is 1-for-8 in three starts with the B-Mets and 2-for-28 in 11 rehab games between GCL, St. Lucie and the Binghamton Mets. Let me do the math for you: that’s .071.
He will be at Shea this week .
Mets will probably send down Reyes junior.
Luis Castillo's 20-day minor-league rehab clock is set
to run out midweek, meaning the Mets may be
forced to activate the second baseman on Thursday unless a legitimate injury issue remains.
Ryan Church has started to play in games
in Florida. He went 1-for-3 as DH in five
innings with the Gulf Coast League Mets. Trot Nixon appeared in the field, going 2-for-2 in that game while playing left field. Luis Castillo may make a guest ...
Luis Castillo is expected to in the lineup
for the Binghamton Mets Friday night. It has been
reported that B-Mets manager Mako Oliveras has been waiting for Castillo to show up at NYSEG Stadium.
Now things have truly turned upside down. Billy
Wagner is STARTING Thursday for Double-A Binghamton. Obviously that’s
just to ensure an inning of work. Also, Trot Nixon went 2-for-5 as the DH for the Gulf Coast League Mets today. ...
New York Mets second baseman Luis Castillo continued
his rehab stint Monday night for the GCL Mets.
he left the game in the second inning.
Luis Castillo went 0-for-3 with a walk in
his second rehab start for the Gulf Coast League
Mets.
Mets second baseman Luis Castillo played in his
first live game in almost a month. Playing for
the Golf Coast League Mets Friday night, Castillo went 0-for-2 with a walk.
Send Luis Castillo anywhere for a bag of
balls. I beg of you. That is all.
Yesterday, I wrote about " my problem with
prospects ." Today, in a guest post, Doug Helferich
is going to explain his problem with veterans... They've seen it all. They know the pitchers, they know how to play each hitter in the field. The provide stability. But are they a sure bet? I think it depends. Over the years, the Mets have perennially been buyers at the trading deadline. Trading ...
