    Like I said, I've got a good feeling about this kid.

    Anyone miss Drew?

    ...I don't think there was any question about Castro's bat...if he can just play average defense he'll make people forget about Cano.

    Beltran with a solo shot makes it 13-6. Both Beltran and Tex approaching 400 homers for their careers.

    The hometown Washington High boy, loves playing at Home...

    Hope the change of position brings with it a gold glove; at least less errors? better fielding pctg. Hope today's game is a beacon of Castro to come, with the bat very impressive thus far, 2 gms in...

    Love to see a hometown kid do well at Home, especially in dah Bronx..

    Suddenly, with both Didi and Castro I'm really digging what the Yankees have going on in the middle infield.

    And hopefully, fair chance next year we'll also have Bird on 1st base and Sanchez (maybe soon this year) seeing action behind home plate.
    Can Judge also break through and take over RF?

    DiDi, Castro, Bird, Sanchez - average age: 25 years old.
    With Judge, average age: 25 years old.
    Not too bad - but we still have 160 games left to do something this year.
