Monday at 12:23 PM5 days While we laugh and cry at Castillo and his contract (although I don't really care, it's JR's money) there are some parallels to Dennis Eckersley. I'm a season of very unlikely White Sox turnarounds having him reinvent himself as a closer would be the most unlikely Sox thing to have happen. Exactly why it will. He just had to go throw about 15 good pitches.
Monday at 12:45 PM5 days Castillo was throwing 95 yesterday, if he knows he is only going 1 inning I wonder if he could sell out and crank it up to 98?

Monday at 09:01 PM5 days I really like the Eckersley comparison. Castillo has very good postseason stats, seems fair to say he has another gear, maybe he re-discovers his stuff out of the bullpen and the trade isn't a total bust. All things considered, I'd probably still have more confidence in Castillo to pitch well in the postseason than Mason Adams or McDougal.
