The Colorado Rockies sign shortstop Juan Castro
The Rockies have signed 35-year old righty swinging Juan Castro to a minor league contract. He likely won’t be in the minors long due to the fact that the Rockies are having troubles with the middle infield. Castro played in 7 games for the Reds this season and he was 0 for 10 (.000 avg, .091 OPS) with 1 run scored. Castro has now played in 930 games in his major league career and he is 510 for 2,221 (.230 avg, .604 OPS) with 211 runs scored, 33 homers and 195 RBIs. This is a nice low risk move for the Rockies.
