Starlin Castro convinced Yankees have enough to be playoff team

TAMPA -- Yankees second baseman Starlin Castro has been paying attention to what's going on around him during the early stages of spring training.

He sees things that outsiders who think this will be a nothing year don't.

Yankees touted pitching prospect talks about organizational plan for him on heels of injury-plagued 2016 season.

Too many young guys?

Not enough pitching?

Rebounding year?

Castro doesn't buy it.

He saw how the Yankees came together with a lot of new (and younger) faces last August after management gave up on them and held a fire sale, and he really likes what he's seen so far this spring.
