That shoulder must be really hurting . . .
Hope it's the 60 Day DL

He's better than Haren.

Did Gordo really ask Castro if he needed Adderall?  I know that the thought has crossed my mind before, but I think there is a wide gap between wondering about it and writing a story in a major paper about it.

A buzzer in his shorts with Maddon having the trigger button might work too.

That would be the best solution.  I should start giving that to parents...

Montero activated, Szczur back to AAA.  The lineup will be interesting today.

It appears highly unlikely that Javy Baez will be up before Sept.

Which is what I was saying as soon as he was injured.

Jordan Zimmermann ERA+ 108 * 134.2 IP= 14541.2
Jon Lester*               ERA+ 116 * 132.2 IP= 15389.4

*Doesn't include his start today which lowered his ERA.

Bruce Miles with an article with richer quotes from both Maddon and Theo on Castro's role.  It includes this from Maddon:

"Like I told Starlin, it's not a day off," Maddon said of the benching. "I want him to understand that upfront. It's something that's going to be considered daily. I did not give him any promises regarding how he's going to be utilized other than just, 'Stay ready off the bench.' I didn't want to give him any kind of false promises."
