Availability
Luis Castillo allowed two hits over six scoreless innings with seven strikeouts and two walks in a no-decision on Monday against the Yankees.
Fantasy Impact
Castillo was showing his vintage stuff Monday night in Seattle. Coming off a down season, he gets off to this year on a strong note. He was in line for the win when he left the game, but the Mariners bullpen gave up the lead in the next inning. He is scheduled to face the Angels in his next outing.
Luis Castillo will start on Monday against the Yankees.
Fantasy Impact
Castillo is really the No. 4 starter for the Mariners, but he is opening the season fifth in the rotation because the Mariners likely want Emerson Hancock to avoid the Yankees. Castillo doesn't hold the same upside he has once had, but he should continue to eat a lot of innings for the Mariners rotation.
The Mariners are not expected to trade Luis Castillo.
Fantasy Impact
Castillo has found his name in the middle of trade rumors over the past couple of seasons. He is coming off another steady year, posting a 3.54 ERA over 32 starts. He has remained the workhorse in the Mariners starting rotation. There have continued to be rumors of Seattle possibly trading a pitcher for a bat each of the past couple of seasons.
Luis Castillo allowed one earned run on just one hit while striking out ten over 7.1 innings in Wednesday's victory against the Rockies.
Fantasy Impact
After today’s win, Castillo is not slated to make another start during the regular season. Castillo now has a 3.54 ERA and 1.18 WHIP to go with an 11-8 record across 32 starts this season.
Luis Castillo tossed a stellar six innings, allowing just three hits and no walks while striking out three in Thursday's victory against the Royals.
Fantasy Impact
After today’s performance, Castillo now holds a 3.63 ERA and 1.23 WHIP with 10 wins and 8 losses across 31 starts this season. It's been a bit of a down season by Castillo's standard, but he has been servicable for fantasy managers. He's compiled 17 quality starts to give managers volume, but his strikeout rate is the lowest of his career. He'll look to close out his regular season next week against the Rockies.
