Welington Castillo Opts Out Of 2020 Season
4 years agoWashington Nationals manager Dave Martinez said that catcher Welington Castillo has opted out of playing in 2020 amid the coronavirus pandemic. Castillo will join teammates Ryan Zimmerman and Joe Ross in opting out this year. The 33-year-old was on a minor league deal that he signed in January and was unlikely to make much, if any, fantasy impact as the third catcher on the depth chart behind Yan Gomes and Kurt Suzuki. Castillo hit a disappointing .209/.267/.417 with 12 home runs and 41 RBI in 72 games in his second season and final season with the White Sox in 2019.
