Seems like this deserves it's own thread:http://m.redsox.mlb.com/news/article/169586152/brock-holt-to-play-left-field-vs-righties
Apparently the team isn't going to demote Castillo to the minors, but with Chris Young on the roster it's not even clear that there would be much of a bench role left for Castillo. As it stands, Castillo would seemingly only get starts when another OF needs a day off and/or when the Sox are facing a RHP and Holt is playing in the IF. Is there a trade coming? With Castillo's bloated contract it might be difficult to pull off but at this point you'd have to think that is an increasingly likely scenario.
