And while I think of it, how lousy has been our right field play and production?
All that supposed depth and we have the weakest RF in baseball, I believe.
I wasn't counting on Vic to play very much this season and it looks like that is what is happening. Too bad. Because he still can play well in all phases of the game when he is healthy enough to take the field. That bat still works and he has not lost his eye.
Castillo has been counted on to provide a spark but this was delusional thinking the way I see it. He is an undisciplined batter with questionable judgment in the field. He makes two web-gem catches one night and then the next he will misread a carom of a wall or just boot it somehow. The guy belongs in AA to learn some skills, refine others, and to learn how the game is played here.
Overall, it's just a mess.
At least Mookie and Swihart are fun to watch. Even Bogey has improved his D and has begun to show promise at the plate.
