Why would you want him shipped to Japan instead of being traded? Personally, I want to trade both Castro and Baez; I really don't care who they play at 2B for the time being. Having a turd bat in the lineup isn't sinking their hitting; it's that too many players are having down seasons or are too streaky or still adjusting to being in the bigs. I'd like to see the Cubs use the resources they have and go get something like Carlos Gomez and Hamels and then just keep your fingers crossed that the critical bats in the lineup stop wallowing in a pit of despair. That way they've made moved to help this year and the future. If guys like Bryant and Soler and Russell and Schwarber click long term on top of having players like Rizzo and Gomez then I'm really not worried about the Cubs having a nobody manning 2B this season, or even the next.
