August Update: Signed for $62,500 out of the Dominican Republic when the 2020-21 international signing period opened on Jan. 15, 2021, Castillo had a modest pro debut that year in the Dominican Summer League, hitting .252/.327/.302 in 43 games. He has been a pleasant surprise in 2022, hitting .297/.387/.483 with three home runs, 17 walks and 28 strikeouts in 33 games as an 18-year-old in the Rookie-level Arizona Complex League before the Brewers promoted him to Low-A Carolina in August. Castillo has a strong, compact frame and makes hard contact with a chance for at average or better power. His offensive game is what will drive his value, as he's a below-average runner limited to an outfield corner.
