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?
