| this winter was the Mets' Ramon Castro. I didn't view him as a potential starter. But with nine homers in 124 ABs for the Mets this year, Castro could move to the front of a weak class of catchers. Assuming Jorge Posada and Ivan Rodriguez never hit the open market, that leaves Castro, Michael Barrett, Paul Lo Duca, and Jason |

| Castro left after three innings with back discomfort. He is listed as day to day, making the back up catcher....Dave Newhan. Castro was 0 for 1 for the day, and dropped a ball on a play at home that turned an out to a run. Newhan has never caught on the MLB level. Its safe to assume that if Castro is not ready for the next Met |

So a reunion seems natural, right? Not so fast. A Mets' source said that the team has no interest in Piazza right now, despite reports that he has |

And the likelyhood we ever see Castro again gets smaller and smaller, which is ironic, since Castro seems to get bigger and bigger.

Some kind of MLB-ready starting pitching is likely to come back in a Willis or Cabrera deal. But otherwise the Fish will try an injury-discounted guy like Kris Benson.

Not terrible much to add…if Green and Castro are brought back its most likely as bench players not starters. Of that group I’d assume Castillo and |

| Lo Duca, Jason Kendall, and Ramon Castro as backup options at catcher. I like the idea of Molina. Scott Boras client Matt Holliday is under Colorado's control for the 2008 and 2009 seasons, though he'll start getting quite expensive in arbitration. The Rockies will make an offer to lock him up for 2008-11 for roughly $60MM. |
