Love the Castro/Zimmer trade
The biggest weakness I could see was not having anyone capable of playing a quality CF after Springer, well Zimmer fits that bill big time. Strong base runner too for late in games, and he's a lefty bat with a bit of potential possibly. Not a bad get at all for a reliever they snagged off waivers last year, and who didn't make the MLB roster ahead of a guy like Thornton haha. Castro has good stuff though, I wouldn't be surprised if Cleveland gets some value out of him. Good trade for both teams.
I imagine this means Collins gets optioned to Buffalo.
