## Resource

Luis Castillo’s latest meltdown—six earned runs in four innings for the White Sox against the Astros—justifies why the Mariners traded him before the deadline. Once a Mariners cornerstone, his decline was too steep to ignore, especially after paying him big while watching his performance spiral. His brief flashes of past greatness couldn’t offset the consistent collapse, and his disastrous stint with Chicago proves Seattle made the right call: cut ties now, save cash, and avoid betting on a pitcher whose best days are behind him.
