Robert Casilla: My name is Robert Casilla, C-A-S-I-L-L-A. Casilla, in Spanish, means little house. My wife's name is Torres. Torres means tower, so by marrying me, she went from a tower to a little house. Growing up, I used to pronounce my name Casilla. Later on, I realized the L's are silent, so the two L's sound like ya. That's why, for the past 10, 15 years, I've just pronounced my name Casilla.
