Starlin Castro Called Up?


ESPN Deportes is reporting that Starlin Castro has been called up by the Cubs and will be with the team for the upcoming series vs. the Reds.

Well... I didn't think this was going to happen so soon, I guess Hendry just felt this team needed a spark.  I wish they kept him in the minors for at least another month, but if the organization thinks he's ready, I can't say that I won't be excited to watch him.  I'm assuming this moves Theriot to second.  That creates a 3 headed monster of Theriot/Fontenot/Baker.  I'm curious how Lou is going to handle shuffling 5 outfielders and 4 middle infielders.  Does Castro bat second?
