Remember, he was DFA'ed to make room for Josh Osich, a pitcher from....

The Giants.

Nice hat! Grey and white old bird hat.

Just seeing this now, but I have that same hat! I wear it a lot. Got it at a Kohl's randomly. Glad Elias and I have the same taste

Why isn’t Castro being stretched out? I thought he was in competition for rotation spot? He only went one inning yesterday retiring side in order. I thought it was odd he didn’t come back since other guys that are competing for rotation appear to be going two.

Split squads action with the entire contingent showing their wares.  Cobb and Harvey on the main stage.  Mountcastle settling in at first.  Hays with a little more CF action.   Diaz rumbling around in RF.  Means set to give up a couple.  Sisco catching with the big team.  Mancini still DH'ing,  Martin with first squad and Escobar and @Legend_Of_Joey Wynns (but enemy Susac catching) with "scrubs".  Enjoy but no tv today!

I'm not sure what to think about the "split squad" lineups. Usually you can clearly tell when it is "A" team and "B" team, especially the "travel" squad. But Villar, Hays, Rickard, Nunez are traveling, Wilkerson and Young Jr. are staying. 

Also seems like they want Sisco and Wynns to get the majority of the time, as they are both getting in the line up a bit more than the rest between catching and DH'ing (though Sisco has the hotter bat out of everyone right now.)
