He either got lazy or this is who he's gonna be for the rest of his career. Real shame too, he showed promised. I remember watching his first at bat cause I had the Cubs that day, he hit a homer to start things off.Comment -
he is not as good of a player as they thought.has bad habitsComment -
No heart in that young kid it is sad.Comment -
Tough for some guys to play for such a terrible team. You could tell from day one that his attitude wasn't the greatest. Probably just bored and unmotivated playing for a team with zero chance of winning.Comment -
Having off year, probabley get it going a little late.Comment -
I dont see him getting it going at all this yearComment -
He has a lower batting average and a lower on base average than Pete Kozma!Comment -
I think he started to buy into his own hype too much.Comment -
he's always been a hacker who relied on high contact numbers. But pitchers are throwing less pitches in the zone and that has lead to high K rates lower walk rates and less line drives. assuming he never develops good plate discipline he will be prone to large variance stretches. He also may be stealing less because before this year his steal rates (66%) actually provided neagtive value.
if fact:
and this was posted last august.However, those kinds of facts ignore the fact that Castro hasn’t really improved much since getting to the big leagues in 2010. He’s posting career worst marks in walk rate strikeout rate, and BABIP, all of which is leading to a 91 wRC+, worse than he posted in either of the last two years. His defense has improved, and there are fewer questions now about whether he can remain at shortstop, but his offense hasn’t progressed as quickly as the Cubs would have hopedComment -
I won't draft him next year.
He is overrated.
He tends to go in the 1st 7 rounds of any draft.
Shortstops are hard to come by, in general.
But, Starlin should be waited out till round 11+ next yearComment -
Jeff Francouer type hacker scouts catch onComment -
He'll turn it up in his contract year in 2020.Comment -
Whos your daddy!Comment -
Castro sucks
ba 233
5 homers
7 bags
21 steaks
I don't even know if the Cubs are doing a very good job of rebuilding
their future players are not looking to promisingComment -
Starlin having a down year. The hitting will come back. The question is what can be done about the defense.[quote=jjgold;5683305]I win again like usual

[quote=Whippit;7921056]miami won't lose a single eastern conference game through end of season[/quote]Comment -
Starlin better figure it out quick.Comment -
Maybe turning it around a little here lately. Hopefully big second half.Comment -
Better be a big 2nd half!Comment -
Since starlin was benched on June 27 he's batting over .300
And no errors!!!!!Comment -
lead off triple yesterday. but no match for the cardinals 20+ hits.Comment -
Hot second half comingComment -
I think he'll be fine. I don't see franchise-type player but he should be very solid.Comment -
I hope he heats up second half, there are always guys who seem to need this time to rest and chill and come back strongComment -
Another product of a Cubs system that rushes players and doesn't develop them.Comment -
I'm predicting a great second half for Castro.Comment -
def has the talent . but dont think he will heat up . maybe next season . cubs
Comment -
Busch League loser. Stranded a small village on the bases today.
Got his guaranteed $$$, then went Carmelo on the Cubs.Comment -
Tired of him, better put up soon.Comment -
Guy doesn't have the mental makeup for the gameComment -
Great bounceback season.Comment
