Positional Profile: C/RHP Castillo is approaching the beginning of his high school career and is already showing some impressive upsides as a two-way player. He's a big kid with impressive number for just being a '28.
Body: 5-11, 233-pounds.
Delivery: 3/4 release, starts with hips open. Big leg kick, stays mostly up right.
Arm Action: RH. Cleand and efficient arm action. Incorporate lower half more to create more power.
FB: T80, 78-80 mph. Comfortable pitch, consistent and smooth. T2340, 2231 average rpm.
SL: 65-69 mph. Good shape, finish the pitch to increase accuracy and movement. T2437, 2382 average rpm.
CH: 72-73 mph. Plays well of the FB. As he becomes more comfortable, this pitch will be very useful. T1186, 1152 average rpm.
ATH: 8.03 runner in the 60. 1.94 and 4.45 in the 10 and 30 yard splits.
Positional Profile: C/RHP Castillo is approaching the beginning of his high school career and is already showing some impressive upsides as a two-way player. He's a big kid with impressive number for just being a '28.
Body: 5-11, 233-pounds.
Hit: LHH. Open stance, vertical barrel. Hands start at/below shoulders. Agressive swing, not super consistent but as he makes adjustments will be a quality XBH hitter. 69.1 mph bat speed with 7 G's of rotational acceleration.
