The Seattle Mariners face financial limitations this offseason, with only $15-20 million to spend. This makes trading arbitration-eligible pitchers counterproductive to their goal of consistently winning.
Luis Castillo, despite being past his prime, remains a productive pitcher with notable stats: a 3.64 ERA in 175 innings, a 24.3% strikeout rate, and a 1.17 WHIP.
Castillo’s pitching style is defined by his four-seam fastball, which averages 95 MPH and works effectively at the top of the zone. His unique mechanics make the pitch deceptive.
With a pitching surplus but limited budget, the Mariners may be looking for trade partners that strengthen their lineup without sacrificing key controllable pitchers.
