Stanton could be a 40 HR guy in the majors, but he’s also got strikeout issues which makes that floor a little low.
Castro right now looks probably at worst, to be a mediocre ML catcher. His upside isn’t terrific, but he could get up to 15-20 homers with a solid average, maybe .280, .290 even.
did lo
get the win?

Against a lefty too
but not the greatest pitch. It was crushed though.

Bad pitch
Hanging curve high in the zone. Still nice to see the power though, and against a lefty.

I consider that a positive game for Castro
I missed the game. That minor league thread had more discussion about Castro’s arm (He gunned down at least one if not two attempted steals )
I love this line: “Stanton’s upside is tremendous. Castro’s floor is probably higher though.”
