So much for that glut of outfielders.
Victorino leaves tonight's game with hamstring tightness. No time frame given, nor comment on the grade of the strain yet, but it is hard to imagine anything less than at least 2 weeks and it potentially could be a lot longer.
Castillo is still on the DL with a ashoulder injury. I haven't heard any updates, but it is likely that he is at least 2 weeks away.
So Craig, the 5th outfielder is now a starter. He is likely to get significant time to literally prove his worth. Then when Castillo returns, Craig would have had plenty of opportunity to establish his value (or lack thereof) to the RS and to other teams.
Brock Holt is also likely to see time in the outfield especially if Craig doesn't regain his hitting stroke.
If Victorino is headed to the DL, JBJ will get the call at least until Castillo is ready.
