Like, they're getting... And it's hard to parse this because they use so many openers that their actual stats numbers for starters is broken beyond repair.
But, like, technically, they have the least innings from their starting rotation of any team in the league.
Some of that is openers.
Some of the fact is that you kind of capped Eric Fetty two times through the order.
So...
Basically, he pitched about as well as you could ask him to pitch on Friday, and that still was just five innings.
And with Noah Schultz having his struggles where he's had some outings that end well short of that, they really wanted to address the idea that they were just getting at least one short start out of every five and possibly two and making it a more sustainable thing for their bullpen.
Now, if Castillo struggles and pitches like a guy, the five era, it's still going to be difficult for him to get through the six innings, even if he's built up for it and has this experience of logging heavy seasons.
They do need to do something to get his performance turned to right around.
You know, they certainly hit hard on the idea like, well, he didn't really like piggybacking with the Mariners and things stabilized a bit after that.
But it's still the lowest strikeout rate of his career.
It's still like seeing his slider with rate like way down from the year before.
There's got to be.
And I think it's inherent with any trade right now in 2026 baseball.
There's some sort of tweak development plan that you put in place to get this guy back to where he's been, where he was like a mid three starter for 180 and it's just the previous year.
And, you know, obviously in the past he's had, you know, one of the best changes in the sport and now it's kind of this disenforced pitch.
I don't know how recoverable that is, but.
You've got to have at least some kind of measure to what can get him back in the form.
It just felt like certainly being around the team yesterday and probably like maybe even a week or two into like really him being here, maybe even farther out than that, that it's going to come into shape over time.
Yeah, it kind of feels like some moves are going to have to bounce around, like because if anything, they have they had a crunch of right handed outfielders that was coming before this.
