Our new Pirates Winter Report will highlight one Pittsburgh Pirates prospect each week, then give brief notes from each country playing winter ball. This week, we feature Jesus Castillo, who spent the 2022 season in the Florida Complex League, and is currently playing in Australia.
Jesus Castillo isn’t a well known prospect name. You have to really follow this site to know who he is, but that’s something that could change in the future.
Castillo made a huge jump this season, culminating with the Florida Complex League batting title. Before the season even started, we mentioned him as a player to watch in Extended Spring Training.
