Breaking: Castillo on the Block

[Donn Beach]

Huh

Boston Strong

“There’s been speculation about a trade that would send Castillo to Boston and send first baseman Triston Casas to Seattle, sources said Casas hadn’t been involved in the conversations. Instead, the Mariners were targeting pitching.”

MLBTV has raised Castillo's trade value to $7.7...

Pussies.

Stand on business.

They seem to change things pretty often. Odd system they've got going.

Would love to see the people behind it...

7.7 in surplus value seems a lot more realistic than negative value given what some of these other guys are going for.

Like what would Castillo get on the market right now? 4/$100M?

Or closer to what Blake Snell got? They're the same age right?

Castillo has a lot more than $7.7M value over what his contract is imo.

He's a $200M player only owed $70M from where I'm sitting.

FWIW Luis Castillo's value at Baseball Trade Values has jumped from a negative $30.6 million on November 8, to a negative $6.1 million on November 22, to a positive $5.5 million on December 2 to a positive $2.8 million Monday to $7.7 million this evening.

This one made no sense to me.

How did he dip 11 days ago according to their algo... and then increase back up?

Like, what?

Here are some of the current contracts, and options that have been exercised-

Max Fried, will be 30 years old, 8yr/$218M
Gerritt Cole, 33, remains with Yankees, 4yr/$144M
Blake Snell, 31, 5yr/$182M
Nathan Eovaldi, 34, 3yr/$75M
Michael Wacha, 32, 3yr/$51M
Luis Severino, 30, 3yr/$67M
Yusei Kikuchi, 33, 3yr/$63M

and Luis Castillo, will be 31, has 3yr/$70M remaining.

He's worth more excess value to a team than $7.7M imo. He's been a workhorse compared to any of them.

[Gammons] The hitter the Mariners would love to get is Christian Walker, which for now is out of their price range. Another GM suggested "Craig Breslow is tireless, he's really smart, if he can clear Castillo's money, give Seattle help elsewhere and allow them to get Walker, maybe he gets Castillo

The rumors are really confusing to me.

M's want a vet right-handed 1B. I first thought JT and then Sanatana who is a switch hitter was in the rumors. And then Tristan Casas trade or not. And it has become unclear if not only7 did they wisely turn down Miller Woo for Casas but maybe they didn't like Casas enough for a Luis package. And here today I was hearing they wanted to trade Castillo to make room for a Christian Walker sign.

They already let Burger go to the Rangers.

They have done next to nothing so far, and guys that could have contributed are flying off the shelves in a hurry.

Tristan Casas isn't even the guy that the M's are interested. In fact his name hasn't even come up. They want 'pitching' from Boston.
