Starlin Castro made his first appearance of the 2010-11 season for Escogido on Tuesday night. Castro had been in the Dominican Republic for a few weeks, but the Cubs had already announced he would be held back until November 30. Just long enough for Starlin to be around when a tour group from Chicago visited. How nice.
I'm sure Moises Alou, the GM of Escogido, didn't mind waiting. Heck, Pedro Lopez had the position locked down with a 205/277/260 line. Lopez has more errors (5) than extra-base hits (3).
I grabbed some screenshots of Starlin's debut. You can find them at Twitpic, just click this one -- with an interesting spelling of Starlin's name (provided by the Escogido front office, no less).

Escogido has an official UStream feed, which is one of a bunch of links you can find in the Winter Ball Viewing Guide. Hopefully Starlin won't go 0-for-5 too often.
