Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Luis Castillo has thrown 18,164 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2017 and 2024, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2024, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (95mph) and Slider (85mph), also mixing in a Sinker (95mph) and Change (88mph).


In 2024, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has slight armside run and has slightly above average velo. Their slider is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders, has primarily 12-6 movement and has some two-plane movement. Their sinker has heavy sinking action, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has an obvious tail, has well above average velo and results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers. Their change has an obvious armside fade, dives down out of the zone and is much firmer than usual.
