Starlin Castro’s return to old position not exactly smooth
Starlin Castro played his old position, shortstop, for the first time this season in the Yankees' 5-4 win over the Tigers on Thursday.DETROIT — Starlin Castro’s career as a shortstop isn’t completely over.
Castro started at his former position Thursday for the first time this season, with Joe Girardi opting to keep Didi Gregorius out of the starting lineup against Tigers lefty Matt Boyd.
“It’s fun to be out there again,” said Castro, who hadn’t taken grounders at short during batting practice since spring training. “It’s my natural position, so I always like playing there.”
