Media & Collins help Mets promote Castillo

Now Terry Collins say he was selfish when he was saying he things Castillo should have been in camp early like Mets boy Wright and El Professor Reyes.  Collins had no problem the other day opening up his yap saying that Castillo should be in camp to show he is ready to take 2nd base by the horns .  Now he is like well he is here  lets see what happens.  Of course who knows why Collins changed his tune. Maybe any bad press means the Mets cant trade him for a bag of balls.

Well now the Media wants to play nice with Castillo by reporting that some of the Mets players say the 2nd baseman is misunderstood. Check out what some Mets said here. My question is if the reporters know fans dont give a rats....about Castillo why do we need to see a story how he is just misunderstood etc? Maybe the Mets are dying to see something nice about there 6M dollar lump.  He is not misunderstood if you ask me. He just doesn't have the skills anymore.

The Mets know that if they want to get anything for this guy they need to showcase him so bad press cant help. I feel its a easy deal . No matter how good Castillo does in spring he needs to go.

Release him, trade him for a bag of balls or to some team who has injuries at 2nd.  I would take Murphy and his bat and his desire to help the team then Castillo and his single hitting injury riddled jog down the baseline. Sorry Mets I really do not think the team will get anything for Castillo regardless of how you showcase him

No matter what Castillo needs to be gone when the 2011 Mets head to Miami to play the Marlins. Collins can mouth all he wants about intensity and desire. Castillo soft nature doesn't fit the mold anymore.
