    I hate Castro at the plate.

    How is he so bad now?

    Castro needs to hit 9th, right now he is worse than a pitcher

    And then you chase a bad pitch right into a double play...

    Sucks Castro is useless at the plate currently. Rally killer.

    Ugh.

    When can we get back the Castro who hit about .270 in 2012-2013?

    It looked like he kind of second guessed himself on that swing. I didn't see how much break (if any) was on the ball to cause that second guessing. I don't like to badmouth players. In baseball there are streaks of all kinds, and none of it means a player is the worst or greatest. Any player on this team including Castro can possibly step up big in a crucial moment.

    Would have been strike 3 anyways..... he's been absolutely lost at the plate since coming off the DL.

    That's twice in two playoff games where Castro was better off just walking to the plate, standing there for 3 pitches, then walking back with his dick between his legs.

    Someone said on 790 this afternoon,

    The Texans has Mallett and Hoyer,

    The Astros has Conger and Castros.

    Don't worry A-Rod, if we continue to make the playoffs, Castro will take your place for the worst batting average in post season history.

    I would like Castro to just stand and don't even swing. At least he would have a chance at walk and avoid DP

    yeah and I would have taken the strike instead. the moment he made contact, we all knew it would be the signature GIDP
