Now here's a surprise

Here's a pretty surprising move, the Pirates have actually gone ahead and made a rather significant move this spring by benching Jose Castillo and putting Jose Bautista into the starting lineup as the third baseman. I had assumed the Bucs were going through the motions with the pre-season "competition" at the spot, but apparently they really are going to start Bautista. This really throws a wrench into filling the past few spots, Tracy may have kept Jose K off the team in favor of Bautista but I doubt he'll keep Castillo as his primary utility guy. I guess we'll have to wait and see.
