Starlin Castro’s slump comes at the right time for the Yankees

Related Topics: Starlin Castro

The Yankees collected 15 hits during their blowout win against the Twins yesterday. Seven starters picked up hits, four of whom had multi-hit games. Starlin Castro, on the other hand, had none. He went 0 - 4, continuing a longterm slump that has plagued him for most of the month. It’s been a rough go for the Yankees second baseman, especially considering he opened the season doing a great Willie Mays impression.

Castro owns a .250/.276/.347 batting line on the month of September. When paired with his two home runs, the Yankees second baseman has managed a weak 62 wRC+.
