Tony Castillo  
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Castillo, and that's saying a lot. He frequently leaves fastballs up in the strike zone, where they get pounded. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
His pickoff move is only fair. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Castillo is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Castillo has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Castillo as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2010 Outlook
But if you ask me, I'll pass on Castillo.
