Is Vinny Castilla underrated and hated?

[jayman]

I think this is a common misconception many people have:

If you think a player is bad, is getting lucky, or won't keep it up, you are a HATER. That's not the case at all.

A lot of people don't have faith in Vinny. He's porbably a nice guy and everything , but comon', the man has put together ZERO GOOD SEASONS outside of COORS FIELD . Until he has a full great/good season outside of Coor's very few people are going to give into the possibility that he is not a solid by-product of the Coor's effect (and, no, I don't mean drunk ).

Didn't he have a decent season with the Astros a few years ago?

yes. decent. Nothing like what he did last year and pervious years in coors.
