Luis Castillo News
Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Luis Castillo put together a strong performance versus the Texas Rangers to pick up his second victory of the season on Thursday. Castillo tossed six innings and allowed four hits, two runs, two walks and struck out six on the evening. Castillo has steadily improved as the season has gone on and managers could put to rest any worries from his early season outings. The 31-year-old remains one of the top pitchers in the game and managers can expect to have an ace in most of his starts moving forward. Next up is a matchup versus the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday. Even against a good lineup, Castillo is pretty much a must-start.
Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Luis Castillo continued disappointing fantasy managers in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Blue Jays. Castillo pitched five innings, allowing four runs on nine hits and a walk with six strikeouts. The 31-year-old is now 0-3 with a 6.89 ERA, although he does have 18 strikeouts in 15 2/3 IP. The season is still early and Castillo has earned a long leash given his career track record, but fantasy managers were hoping for a lot more when they drafted him as an ace. Unfortunately, Castillo will have his hands full in his next projected start against a hot Cubs lineup.

Castillo pushed through five innings and allowed six hits, four runs, two walks and struck out five on the evening. The 31-year-old is coming off another strong season and managers should not be concerned as of now, despite spending a high draft pick on the right-hander. Castillo remains a top tier option with ability to rack up strikeouts and limits walks. He will look to get into the win column versus the Cleveland Guardians on Tuesday.

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Luis Castillo enjoyed another successful season in 2023. The 31-year-old compiled a 14-9 record with a 3.34 ERA, 1.10 WHIP, and 27.3% strikeout rate in 33 starts and 197 innings pitched. His peripherals mostly mirrored his 2022 season, but he was able to reach a career-high in IP. Castillo did give up a career-high average exit velocity and hard-hit rate, but his ERA estimators were still solid with a 3.79 xERA and a 3.74 SIERA. He is currently being drafted as the 31st player overall, making him the sixth pitcher drafted. Castillo's jump in ADP from previous seasons can likely be attributed to the lack of a clear top-tier set of starting pitchers. While he has often been thought of as a number two or three fantasy starter, his consistent production and the ability to eat innings make him a worthy ace-level option this season.
