Could the Boston Red Sox nab a new ace starting pitcher from the Seattle Mariners?
Even in the wake of the Garrett Crochet deal, it seems that the Red Sox consider themselves still to be one arm away from their ideal rotation. It makes sense--in today's game, relying on five starters to pitch full, healthy seasons just isn't realistic anymore.
Luis Castillo of the Seattle Mariners is looking like a more viable option by the day. He's a three-time All-Star but the most expensive pitcher on his own team, and though his 3.64 ERA a season ago might lead some to believe his best days are behind him, he's still racking up valuable innings.would pull off a blockbuster trade for Castillo, who is under contract for the next three seasons with a vesting option for a fourth.
"Even with $72.5 million remaining on his deal, Castillo could have enough value on his own to fetch a quality bat for Seattle's offense. Maybe even a great one, provided the club is willing to eat some of his contract."
