Who’s Running the Show? (Part 3)
The San Diego Padres have taken a page from the Astros’ play book, and whined about the front office’s move.
Vinny Castilla’s release ruffled some feathers in the clubhouse. Trevor Hoffman said, “Vinny cared about his teammates.”
Brian Giles chipped in, “I don’t like it. Vinny was a good player for the clubhouse. We all looked up to him as a leader.”
I don’t pretend to know anything about Castilla’s leadership skills, nor of his relationship with his teammates. What I do know is that Vinny had a .260 OBP, and no amount of warm fuzzies in the clubhouse can make up for that offensive black hole.
