Havens Begins Transition to Second Base
It was bound to happen, and with Wilmer Flores, Jordany Valdenspin, and 2009 third round pick Robbie Shields coming up behind Havens and Ruben Tejada in the mid-lower minors, the Shortstop position was getting a little crowded.

Any chance he's "ready" by the time Castillo's contract expires?

I think its reasonable
He’s not as far behind as it seems, he did quite well in the FSL. he mainly has to stay healthy and hope he can get his BABIP up a bit. Between Havens and Tejada, its not unreasonable for the organization to plan to replace Castillo internally. Both should be in the upper minors this year and both look like they could be future big leaguers, and either or both could be ready by the second half of 2011.
