It the mentality of getting "proven" (read: old) guys like Castillo at the expense of younger guys with upside, from within the system, and giving them a chance to play. Not 1-2 times per week, the Willie way, but a full-time slot. It just kills me to see Jeff Keppinger raking in Cincy at 1/10th the cost of Castillo. It's typical. There must be 10-12 teams enjoying the fruits of the Mets farm system while we trot out the Schoewenweisses of the world. But hey, they're Proven! Urgh. (Don't mind me, I've been up since 3:30 AM).
