Appreciating the effort Castro makes to keep up with tribe news. Bastian seems much less involved.

Bastian had yesterday and today off. Castro’s filling in for him. Otherwise, I’ve been enjoying Bastian.

Bastian isn’t at this series. Castro is filling in.

by Roger Dorn on Apr 30, 2011 8:48 PM EDT up reply actions  

Well that explains the his sudden presence, but still, I feel Bastian isn’t as involved as Castro was. I felt like Castro was a fan, Bastian is just doing a job.

Bastian has done a really nice job in my opinion, and yes he isn’t a childhood fan of the Indians like Castro.
