Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Luis Castillo has thrown 18,750 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 (96mph) and Slider (86mph), also mixing in a Sinker (96mph) and Change (88mph).


In 2024, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball has heavy sinking action, generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has slight armside run and has slightly above average velo. Their slider generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sliders, results in many more 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, results in many more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has well above average velo. Their change has an obvious armside fade, dives down out of the zone and is much firmer than usual.
