For the 4th straight day Joe Torre has decided against starting Rafael Furcal at shortstop. Once again, Juan Castro gets the nod. Furcal has been slowed down by a sore buttocks muscle and Torre obviously has no reservations using his entire roster. Castro has been off to a pretty good start offensively this year and his glove has always been top-notch.
Of course, Furcal has been off to a slow start this year and it's probable that Joe figures the extra rest could give his offensive catalyst the fresh start he needs.

I don't think 10 games off would heal him- either physically or mentally.
He's been bad the entire year.
