Tosses quality start Monday Castillo did not factor in the decision against the Cubs on Monday, pitching six innings and allowing two runs on six hits and two walks while striking out five batters.
Impact Castillo wasn't quite as dominant as in his first two starts of the campaign, when he threw a combined 11.2 scoreless frames during which he allowed just three hits. Though he gave up his first two runs of the season Monday, the talented right-hander earned a quality start and kept the Mariners competitive in a low-scoring affair. Castillo has posted a minuscule 1.02 ERA through his first three starts, though has just one win to show for it.

Blanks Halos over 5.2 innings Castillo moved to 1-0 after striking out six over 5.2 scoreless innings in Tuesday's 11-2 victory over the Angels. He scattered two hits and two walks in the 99-pitch outing.
Impact Doubles off the bats of Taylor Ward and Brandon Drury were about the only damage on the night for Castillo, who blanked the Angels midway through the fifth inning before departing with an 8-0 lead. He's yet to allow a run through his first two starts and sports a microscopic 0.43 WHIP over 11.2 innings.

Brilliant in no-decision Castillo did not factor into the decision Thursday versus the Guardians, yielding just one hit and no walks over six shutout frames in a 3-0 victory. He struck out six.
Impact The only baserunner Castillo allowed on the night was a leadoff single by Will Brennan in the third inning which actually glanced off the pitcher's head and knocked his cap off (he was fine). The incident clearly didn't spook Castillo, as he fanned the next three to get out of the frame to start a streak of 12 straight batters retired to finish off his night. He needed only 76 pitches to cruise through his six innings, collecting 13 swinging strikes and a 37 percent CSW rate along the way. The four-seamer was Castillo's most-used pitch in this one, just as it was after he came over to Seattle in a trade last August.

Serviceable thus far in spring Castillo has allowed three runs (two earned) on six hits, two walks and a hit batsman while recording six strikeouts across 4.1 innings during his first two Cactus League starts.
Impact Castillo, who opted to forgo pitching for the Dominican Republic in the World Baseball Classic to instead go through his first full spring training with the Mariners, is getting a decent amount of work in thus far. The right-hander worked up to only 22 pitches in his most recent start Monday against the Cubs, however, so he's likely to see a notable bump in workload in his next start.

Impact "It's a choice that we made together," Dipoto told reporters. The Mariners want Castillo to have a full spring training in his first full season with the club, and Castillo agreed. The right-hander was excellent in his time with Seattle after being traded from the Reds shortly before last season's deadline, producing a 3.17 ERA, 77:17 K:BB and 1.10 WHIP over 65.1 innings across 11 starts. He'll open the year as the ace of Seattle's pitching staff, with the combination of last season's body of work and that of his previous campaigns suggesting he'll be a top-end fantasy asset again in 2023.
