Luis Castillo is only one start into his Cincinnati Reds career and he is already being compared to Mario Soto and Johnny Cueto. He was elite at Double-A and looked impressive at times during his first MLB start. Now the Reds want to see him take it to another level.
The Reds traded away their most consistent pitcher from last year in Dan Straily for the right to develop Castillo. Little did anyone know how little development it would take for Castillo to be big league ready. He was supposedly two years away when the Reds made the deal this past off-season.
