Castillo clears waivers and signs deal with Phillies

Former Mets LuisCastillo didnt waste much time after clearing waivers. They was some chatter that the Mets former second baseman was being looked at from the Marlins and the Phillies.

With the Phillies not sure of what to expect with Chase Utley the Phillies have signed Castillo to a minor league deal according to multiple sources .

The Phillies will be on the hook for 400,000 and the Mets the rest of his salary. The Wilpon's can go to bed tonight knowing they saved a little $$. 

Castillo of course now will pummel the Mets if he makes the Phillies out of spring training.
