Diego Castillo graduated from prospect status recently, after getting a shot in the majors following a strong Spring Training.
As part of our Roundtable series on Pirates Prospects, when a player exceeds his prospect eligibility, we will give an evaluation of what we have seen and expect from him going forward.
At this stage in a player’s career, we get an idea of what a player could become, though there still may be some projectability remaining. That’s especially true for someone like Castillo, playing in his age-24 season.
