looks like he was switched with castillo...hopefully just to get him out of this slump....

he got walked on 1st AB, then stole 2nd & 3rd. At least the steals may be coming around.

except the fact that it was against a horrible steal stopping team...atlanta is 0-11....maybe it will get his confidence back though :-?

They did this last year -- flip-flopping Castillo and Pierre -- when one or the other slumps. Pierre ends up hitting 1st 90% of the time. Same case here.

The problem with that analysis is that when last season STARTED, Castillo was batting first and Pierre was batting second. When they were flip-flopped and Pierre took over leadoff, Castillo never got it back!!!

So, Castillo had better start slumping!!

Gotta love McKeon's feel for the game. Great manager!

i made note of this early, and someone responded by saying that the Castillo-Pierre switch was most likely because they were facing a lefty today

i hope pierre can get out of his slup, cause i drafted him kinda high. he'll come around though.
