About 2 minutes ago, Luis Castillo dropped what should have been the third out in the ninth to win a hard-fought game with their subway rivals. A game in which both sides showed continued grit, battling back and forth for the win.
And this wasn't surprising at all. As soon as Alex Rodriguez popped it up, and the camera shifted to Castillo, I had a bad feeling. I knew he wasn't going to catch it. Maybe it's because he looked like he couldn't find it. Maybe because he's a terrible player in general. Maybe because the Mets had two heart-wrenching defeats in a row to the Phillies. But I could tell.
The Mets can't advance any farther than what they are right now if they don't shed their dead weight. Trading Ramon Castro was a start. Luis Castillo needs to be next (followed by Ryan Church).
Getting healthy would also help.
