Episode Details

Willi Castro is exploding for the Rockies this season, smashing a career-high 14 homers while delivering all-around value with his versatility and clutch performances. In one recent game against the Dodgers, he went 2-for-3 with a homer, two RBIs, three runs scored, two walks, and even stole a base — proving he’s more than just power. Signed to a modest two-year, $12.8M deal after a rough 2025, Colorado’s gamble is paying off big time. His ability to play every infield spot and both outfield positions gives the Rockies immense flexibility as they build their roster. Sure, his defense has flaws and underlying stats aren’t stellar, but at his price tag, those aren’t deal-breakers. Whether he stays or gets traded, Castro is now an indispensable piece in Colorado’s future plans.
