Luis Castillo update. Is he getting a bad rap?

Well unless the Mets make up an injury for Luis Castillo, we will see him sometime this home stand at Shea Stadium. He is back playing rehab games and his time runs out on Thursday so the Mets will have to make a decision.

He seems to be someone that has been quickly forgotten. Is it his lack of clubhouse presence with Jose Reyes? Is it his 4 year contract? Or is that fact that with Damion Easley and Argenis Reyes they really haven’t missed a beat.

Argenis Reyes is the likely candidate to be sent down. Everyone seems to love this kid’s spunk. His defense has been spot on. He did have 3 hits in yesterday’s game. Jerry Manuel has said that he seems to get in the middle of rally’s etc. No worries. If they do move him down we will see him back I’m sure as part of the September call ups.
