Despite the fact that many Cubs fans (and mustachioed commentators) love to hate Starlin Castro in the same, definitely-not-racist-at-all way they hated Aramis Ramirez, they're two of my favorite players. So I got a little emotional when I read that Aramis reached out to encourage Starlin after his demotion to the very deep Chicago Cubs bench. I love what Ramirez told him*:
Trust yourself and don't let any negative thing put you down. Keep working, you know you're good.

That’s not fair. I called Starlin too. Told him to stop being bad at baseball. He hung up on me but it was obviously a hang-up of assent.
Where’s my credit?
