Manager Jim Leyland has selected 26-year old lefty swinging catcher Jason Castro to be the Astros’ lone rep on the All-Star Team. Castro has played in 77 games for the Astros so far this year and he is 76 for 281 (.270 avg, .812 OPS) with 38 runs scored, 12 homers, 31 RBIs and 2 stolen bases. Castro is really stepping up this year for the Astros and he is emerging as a legit building block for their future.
