Starlin Castro

I have a soft spot for Dominican ballplayers, and Castro embodies that dream beautifully. From the coastal town of Monte Cristi, he willed his way to the majors and announced himself by setting the record for most RBIs in an MLB debut, then leading the National League in hits as a barely-grown twenty-year-old. Four All-Star nods across the Cubs, Yankees, Marlins, and Nationals speak to durable, dependable production rather than fireworks. I admire the grind of an infielder who kept showing up and delivering. That kind of self-made consistency earns my quiet, lasting admiration.
