Notes

3/01/25
shton Castillo is a physical 6-foot-2, 200-pound 2026 RHP with one of the more advanced breaking balls in the class. He runs the fastball up to 85 mph (sitting 84–85) with above-average spin metrics (2438 max, 2323 avg rpm). Castillo's calling card is a sharp, high-spin curveball that touches 2982 rpm and shows late depth. He complements it with a similarly tight slider at 75–76 mph (2649 max rpm) and a firm, sinker-ish changeup at 80–83 mph. With size, pitch data, and feel to spin, Castillo profiles as a high-upside arm to follow in the class.

While Castillo pitched at 83-85 with his fastball, his ability to spin two different plus breaking balls helped him carve through his two innings of work. The curveball is one of the better ones I've seen in regards to Indiana '26s, a two-plane offering at 72-74 mph that spun north of 3000 routinely, up into the 3100s a handful of times. The slider was spun with virtually the same velocity as the curveball, but he was able to manipulate shape with it for a true sweeper's profile (0" IVB, 11.7" HZ).
