It’s time to piggy back him and Bleier and see if we can’t shake a SP out of them.

Castro entered the game with a runner on 2nd base and nobody out, in the 7th inning.

He faced 3 batters and got 3 outs (not including an Intentional Walk to Mike Trout), keeping the Orioles in the game at 2-0.

Castro has pitched well out of the bullpen so far this season, with an ERA under 3 (2.86) and opponents batting .206 off of him.

His WHIP is only decent (1.269), as his Walks are very high (16 Regular Walks Plus 2 Intentional Walks in 34.67 innings Pitched.)

He also leads the Orioles bullpen in Innings Pitched (34.67.)

I like him and fully expect he'll become an integral piece of our bullpen moving forward.

Trade him for prospects! 

 

Just kidding plenty of time to do that after he establishes himself in a year or two.

I believe that this guy might be on the conversation for the annual MVO award at season's end.

The first batter that he faced tonight reached via an error ........ and Castro promptly retired the next 3 batters to avoid a potential disaster.

He is an extremely useful pitcher.   Really has a rubber arm.
