Max Castillo pitched five inning, allowing one run on three hits and one walk while striking out three in Kansas City’s 7-1 loss to Tampa Bay on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact:
Castillo made Thursday’s start in place of the recently demoted Brad Keller and pitched well enough to win. However, he fell victim to the Royals’ stagnant offense who couldn’t muster their lone run until after the aforementioned Keller had imploded for five runs in 2/3 innings and put the game out of reach. Castillo’s 6’2”, 280-pound frame establishes a big presence on the mound and if he remains in the rotation, his next start would likely come Tuesday against the Diamondbacks.
