Dingler isn't going to catch 30 straight games - they have to find someone better than Nido to back fill. MLB story says Nido is a 'plus' defender. If he is he was sure keeping it a secret in ST.

Speaking of 3B, remember Marty Castillo, the utility infielder on the '84 Tigers who caught the final popup in the AL pennant-winning game against KC? I recall when he didn't attend the '99 Tiger Stadium closing some vague reason was given like "whereabouts unknown". Did some Internet searching and pulled up an article from 2012 that provides some information.

In 1999 he was  convicted of assault and battery against his wife and spent time in jail. Late in 2011 another domestic incident allegedly occurred and he currently faces similar charges. A criminal trial is pending in Florida and Castillo faces prison time if convicted.

A couple of the comments on the article:

The guy is completely MIA…totally checked out of life. He disappeared because he supposedly owed alimony, child support and also had the IRS on his tail for back taxes. And those were just the things that were reported in the media. There have been media reports that he has been seen in remote pacific islands over the years but soon went back underground. His teammates from 84 haven’t heard from him in years. If he ever did show up at a card show I assume the cuffs would be slapped on him immediately. Translation: he will always be the one guy on the 84 team who isn’t dead that you’ll never get.

On the broadcast the other day before Jake was injured, they were joking Javy wants to catch.

They keep interrupting the pregame on mlb radio with these PSAs about how dangerous it is to drive when you’re high on weed and the guy makes being on weed sound really really attractive.
