MODESTO’S ARROYO, MOORE DEALT IN LUIS CASTILLO TRADE

Edwin Arroyo

The Seattle Mariners made a big trade deadline splash on Friday night with the acquisition of RHP Luis Castillo. In return, the Mariners shipped Modesto SS Edwin Arroyo, Modesto reliever Andrew Moore, 2021 Modesto SS Noelvi Marte and AA RHP Levi Stoudt to the Cincinnati Reds.

The Mariners are 54-47, 12 games out in the NL West, but a half-game up in the Wildcard race. With an extra playoff spot available this year, and looking at the competition, Seattle is in a great spot to make a move to secure a playoff spot. Using their assets in the minor leagues is part of the deal, but there is always much debate over which highly-ranked prospects to part with.

Castillo is 4-4 this year with a 2.86 ERA and 1.07 WHIP. Over 85 innings he has struck out 90 batters and walked 28 with opponents batting .201 against him. His big year was 2019 when he posted a 15-8 record over 190 2/3 innings with 226 strikeouts, 79 walks and a 1.14 WHIP with a BAA of .202.
