The White Sox just pulled off a blockbuster trade, landing three-time All-Star pitcher Luis Castillo from the Mariners in a move that instantly upgrades their starting rotation. Despite a rough stretch with a 5.06 ERA this season, Castillo brings elite experience, over 1,500 innings, and a career 3.65 ERA — and he’s locked in through at least 2026, with potential for 2027 and ’28. The Sox took on his full contract ($24.15M next year + vesting option) while sending back prospects like Sir Anthony Dominguez and Nolan Jones — keeping their top talent intact. This savvy deal gives them a veteran ace without sacrificing future assets, especially as they’re near the bottom of the payroll ladder. Now, the big question: Are they done? Or is more starting pitching on the horizon?
