Daniel Haigwood (SP), PHI

News: The Phillies traded LHP Daniel Haigwood, who was pitching for AA Reading, to the Texas Rangers in exchange for 21-yr old lefty reliever Fabio Castro.

Views: Haigwood was 2-5 with a 3.54 ERA and 1.36 WHIP, with 85 Ks in 85 IP. Castro was 0-1 with a 2.60 ERA in 5 starts as a minor leaguer (AA & AAA) with a 1.62 WHIP. Early in the season, he pitched out of the Rangers bullpen and totaled 5 Ks, 5 hits, 3 walks and 2 ER in 5.2 IP before heading to the DL. I don't really know what Pat Gillick was doing in this trade. Then again, who ever knows what the Phillies are thinking?

Anybody wanna tell me about this Fabio character? The phils now have 4 lefty relievers and their starting rotation currently has 1 pitcher with more than 15 career major league starts. EXCELLENT!

Why would the Phillies do this??? They have no starting pitching anywhere. They're picking up other teams leftovers just to have a starting pitcher. This is why bad teams are bad!!!

They traded him away like 5 or six days ago.

Edit: To make matters worse, this Castro guy is 5'7" and a converted positional player.

Makes more sense I was guessing it was some clearing time. Matheison looked good tonight.

Daniel is my little brother and we have no idea why the Phillies are so stupid. Scott has one pitch and will never do anything. Gio is one of or the most overrated pitcher in the minors.

Scott has more than one pitch.

Gio is developing certain pitches and right now the Phils are not allowing him to throw certain pitches. Considering such, he is putting together quite a year.

Good luck to you and your brother.
