MINNEAPOLIS -- Reds coaches and interim manager Jim Riggleman have been talking about what could be causing pitcher Luis Castillo to be less effective in 2018 than he was during his dominant rookie campaign last year. It was certainly a topic in the dugout Friday, when Castillo pitched a career-low one inning and allowed five earned runs.
Now, the Reds are hoping to carve out some time so Castillo can make the changes.
Castillo worked with pitching coach Danny Darwin last year at Double-A Pensacola. Bullpen coach Ted Power has been around the right-hander since his callup last June.
