Jose Iglesias and Starlin Castro fielding

[deamize]

how can you say starlin does not have the right form when iglesisasdoesnt even put his glove in front of him. its almost liek iglesias runs away from the ball thats why he needs momentum with him just to make the play. starlin can make the play look smooth without moving too much thats why you might think hes not doing much, because hes making it look easy

[CubCrazie21]

Iglesias is an incredible defensive shortstop, but he will have to prove he can be an effective hitter before he can make an impact in Boston.

[thebaseballerboy]

Starlin Castro just does not have the right form. Simple as that

[cgehling]

Iglesias is a better defensive shortstop.. castro is without a doubt a better hitter.

[iTouchEverthing]

Naww 1:27 Domingo Ayala

[swiftg87]

JOSE IS WICKED BETTAH!

[SuperJerk97]

0:11 was totally dope

[20Mrssl]

jose iglesias is better than castro in defense and at the plate lets see, iglesias just needs and oportunity to play

[rocknrollfans8]

i cant wait for castro to sign with a world series caliber team, he deserves it

[PUSHA304]

How long till Iglesias is starting SS for Boston. 2012? Or is he trade bait?

[ephil03]

the last promising dominican shortstop in the sox organization was hanley ramirez. hmmmm.....

[hitlows]

my last name is iglesias :)

[drjoe2323]

Castro got potential to be a superstar

[rocknrollfans8]

what glove does starlin castro use? what model of a2000

[TheAkonmvw]

@rocknrollfans8 i think its the dp15gm

[jefrymatosbaez]

Iglesias is going to be a star but castro definitely is a superstar!! If u don't believe me ask carlos pena or mike quade!

[jefrymatosbaez]

Well guys, i definitely can tell you that while iglesias is working out down in the minors starling castro was playing at the all star game on tuesday! Castro has to keep working on his confidence i think his problem is not a hand matter i think sometimes he has a mental delays because of his age and playing with the cubs but this guy can obiously hit!! He is one of the toughest out in the NL. Iglesias has quick hands. I think he is over rated. But somehow he has something special

[bloodvein3]

i hope Castro plays for the cubs for a long time :D

[MDbaseball3]

@bloodvein3 hell no he needs to go to a team that can win at least 500% of their games ..cubs suck

[bloodvein3]

@MDbaseball3 it's called being loyal to the team. maybe he just wants to be an everyday starter. maybe he's like me and doesn't really give a shit if the team is above .500

[MDbaseball3]

@bloodvein3 lls ik he doesnt give a shit he just wants to do good

[pyk420biatch]

@MDbaseball3 You are a a fucking moron, Castro is 21 and was signed by the cubs. It is players like him that help turn a franchise around.

[bloodvein3]

funny thing is: Jose Iglesias is on the inactive roster xD

[xxSubScribeNOWxx]

Castro is jeter caliber and could hit 315 with 15-20 homers

[ethanberchethall]

@xxSubScribeNOWxx Jeter isn't that great defensively...

[cgehling]

While I would love to see Iglesias called up just to watch him play defense, his bat isn't ready. The red sox waited too long on hanley because of their organizational emphasis on OBP. IMO Iglesias does need at least one more year.

[DJ23littlehester]

starlin castro fav rookie

[tvstealer]

Iglesias' defense is pretty ridiculous

[TheCastrofan]

He is awesome go Castro

[maxmillion0]

Whats with the double clutch Smhh

[darrylhaynes]

cool..

[joshua21deguzman]

whats the thing in there right wrist?

[DrMcSexy]

I don't care if Iglesias hits .220 I still start him everyday with that kind of glove.

[cgehling]

@DrMcSexy that is why the red sox let the rest of the league know that marco scutaro is available for trade.

[kclarke94]

Starlin is so smooth..

[freshkid429]

@kclarke94 i think starlin is better then jose

[quickness221]

Starlin Castro #1

[PATMLB]

I think Castro is more agile than Iglesias. He does not seem to have the body make up to have good lateral movements. I saw a kid in Miami, the call Peyno, that looked like castro who is real smooth. There are some vids circulating.

[TheRicki19]

one thing that dominican coaches teach us is smoothness which jose iglesias dont have. the ball is not a bomb so be smooth kid

[jqu222]

tuck your back pocket in 22

[MrBaseballer123]

@jqu222 those r his batting gloves lol

[dougpgosox]

Chuck Norris wears a Jose Iglesias jersey to bed.

[zerpsiemammas]

castro looks smother than iglesias

[xSeedsofEvil]

@zerpsiemammas bull, you must be watching the wrong vid.

[bryfryable]

love you starlin castro

[scalifire]

these two guys are going to be something very very very special

[bbrriiaann24]

Candelita is hands down a pretty defender I was lucky enough to have practice with him a couple of times in Miami befor he signed

[TheRicki19]

he is not overrated!!!!!....like what tha fuck that dude is a beast and if yall think that he cant field then......why arent you guys in the mlb!! watch more baseball

[bryfryable]

castro is sooo good. so is iglesias.

[AntisocialCheez]

id say kelly is theeir best prospect

[soupkilla9]

5 errors in 3 games for Castro. History of having fielding problems in the minors. He is a good hitter but try going to the AL, fill in that Dh spot.

[bart2427]

Castro will be the better player. Iglesias might be a TAD bit better defensively, but not by much, and Castro will put up better offensive numbers.

[HockeyJock6476]

@bart2427 not true at all iglesias will be one of the best shortstops baseball has seen in years and will make castro look like hes never played baseball before. castro will be a better hitter by a couple batting average points and homers.

[DonPBeast16]

how can anybody say castro is overated u jus cnt he hits every where he goes hes a beast and has a cannon of an arm and oh yea hes only 20 years old

[fcastig0220]

El Brujo 'till I die.

[bubbacon]

castro looks awkward in the field whereas iglesias is a smooth operator. I think castro will be overrated, definitely no Hanley Ramirez or Tim Beckham (WHo i also think is overrated)

[barondavis1524]

@bubbacon im wit u iglesias is crazy and castro is 2 hyped o and tim beckham didnt even have a good year last year and people were goin crazy over him he batted like 270

[DonPBeast16]

@bubbacon lmao wut u think of his first game major league game expert??? lmao

[Hvaqueros]

Candelita and me we play together in the EIDE that was lot time ago he is from San Jose , La Habana

[forbasketballonly]

ug castro needs way more work on the ground

[guanimerito]

ya i seen iglesias play his town in cuba was closed to were i used to be his nick name is candelita he is beast

[willianthediky]

starlin castro es de mi pueblo DOMINICANO FOR SIEMPRE MI GENTE MONTECRISTI CITY

[lildelmo666]

1:29. absolut redic

[ocshorty]

@lildelmo666 routine

[applesauceman]

@lildelmo666 what the hell are you talking about.

[crushing2374]

@lildelmo666 I could do that in my sleep

[bryfryable]

@crushing2374 no shit u can. anyone can do it in their sleep cause its easier duh. try doing it in reality

[baseballguy2186]

@bryfryable I doubt very much that you could do that in your sleep or reality. You definitely don't know baseball if you think it is easy.

[celts1984]

wow the reports wernt lying about iglesias

[ArizonaDbacksFan]

I live in Daytona. I used to get see him every time I would watch a game, until he was promoted

[HockeyJock6476]

Iglesias is projected as an omar vizquel caliber fielder and could hit .300 with 10 homers, one the sox' best prospects

[mafisher13]

@HockeyJock6476 Iglesias is a great prospect, but he is just a bit overrated. The sox have a Hanley Ramirez-type shortstop prospect in Xander Bogaerts in the DSL. he is just 17 and has a much higher ceiling than iglesias. I don't if iglesias is a lock to be the sox ' shortstop of the future, even though he could be a great player.

[StealthMode86]

@mafisher13 And they also have Derrik Gibson and David Renfroe in A-Ball

[StilezC]

@mafisher13 Is Bohgaerts that caliber of player? i saw him on the sox prospect list but he was towards the end with other young and middle aged cuban/dominicans.

[mafisher13]

@StilezC He has yet to hit the higher stages because of his age. He is potentially a bigtime run producer though. It's possible he moves to third anyway since he is so big.

[StilezC]

@mafisher13 o ya, i agree. i didnt disaggree there. to me tho he didnt look so big. so what is ur call on when he will be here? 2-3 years?

[mafisher13]

@StilezC Idk, they may take it slow with him, just like they did with hanley, they didn't want to screw him up. he has tons of potential though.

[StilezC]

@mafisher13 he better. what about Jose Vinicio and Michael Almanzar?

[mafisher13]

@StilezC Almanzar has been dissapointing. Vinicio is a guy that could be somewhat like iglesias, but I think he still has some growing to do.

[kidkappa04]

@HockeyJock6476 adeiny hechavarria is better.

[meestachao400]

@HockeyJock6476 ya man i love him. i watched some vids of him a year or so ago and LOVEA his fielding. he was sick flips that are efficient and always get the out, then i heard he was called up for scutaro!!!! YEAH MUDDANUKKAS!~!!!!

[nabs307]

Starlin Castro is going to be a pimp for the cubs in the future. That is we don't trade him for Granderson. Hope not.

[ArizonaDbacksFan]

Yeah, I saw that they may raise him to the Majors in 2010. If they don't trade him For Roy Halladay or Curtis Granderson he may turn the Cubs around.

[andrewvrodriguez]

Iglesias is a great fielder. Hope he can start for the sox some day

[ethansaporito]

I LOVE how quickly Iglesias gets rid of the ball. Very impressed with him defensively
