This is only Kory's second stint in the Majors. His first and only previous stint in the Majors was April 3rd-April 17th in '07.

By the way  you dont call up a guy who is batting 300 to sit him over a bunch of 100 hitters... i guarantee he starts over Boone at third for the first few days
Uhhh, I bet Boone would bat 400 in AAA

They could call up Goofy and Mickey Mouse and if they'd perform I'd be happy. Hopefully the third second time is the charm for Kory.
I really want to see him succeed just so people realize that 2nd chances work.

If he got the chances Mackowiak, dukes,  and WMP got...he'd probably be batting .250!

But he doesn't get a chance and I don't think Casto will either. He's just another lefty bat stuck on a bench filled with lefty bats

That would be dumb if they did that. Boone is a solid guy off the bench but he is not starting caliber at this point in his career.  Give Casto a chance. He's only 26. Let's see what he can do.
Agreed. Though I have a feeling he'll just end up keeping the bench warm while Pena remains in LF.

WOA! check out casto's wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kory_Casto

Quote
Kory C. Casto (born December 8, 1981 in Salem, Oregon) is a Major League Baseball player in the Washington Nationals organization. Casto made his Major League debut April 3, 2007 in a game against the Florida Marlins. His mother Peggy thinks he is a sell out. His brother Brett is embarrassed to be related to Such a huge sell out. Kory Just needs to remember that he is not better than other people. Hopefully his wife Paige does not leave him because he is so cocky and full of himself. He now plays in Triple A for the Columbus Clippers.

wtf????!!!???

The most encouraging stat that I see w/ Casto this season is that he's not striking out as much. This is probably his last chance here, so I hope his breakout finally happens.

so the conspiracy theorist in me wonders why Casto is starting in RF(over Dukes) instead of Left(over Pena/Langerhans/Mackowiak etc.).

nice to see the fresh face, casto, in the starting lineup but i don't get why it comes at dukes expense. i had a good feeling that this would be a breakout week for dukes...

o well, it doesn't really matter, we're doomed anyways without zimmerman.

This really does show Manny's mentality when it comes to setting lineups. Now that Zimmerman's on the DL, he can finally change the position that bats in the 3rd spot.

Well, he hasn't really driven the ball like he was in the minors, but I can definitely tell he's more patient this year.
