Eiberson Castellano - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates | FOX Sports

Shut down with injury again Double-A Reading placed Castellano on its 7-day injured list Saturday due to an undisclosed injury.

Impact After about a three-week stay on the shelf due to another unspecified injury, Castellano was activated from Reading's IL last Thursday. He made a relief appearance in a 5-4 loss to Erie that same day and gave up three earned runs on two hits and two walks over one inning. It's unclear if Castellano aggravated the previous injury or suffered a new one in that relief appearance, but Reading moved quickly to deactivate the 24-year-old righty once again. Castellano is without a clear timeline to return to action.

Shelved at Double-A Double-A Reading placed Castellano on its 7-day injured list May 4 due to an unspecified injury.

Impact A Rule 5 selection by the Twins in December, Castellano was returned to the Phillies after Minnesota was unwilling to include the 24-year-old righty on its Opening Day roster coming out of spring training. Castellano began the season in Reading, where he posted a 3.60 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 16:2 K:BB in 15 innings while working in a swingman role before he was shut down with the injury.

Returned to Philadelphia The Twins returned Castellano to the Phillies on Tuesday, Bobby Nightengale of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.

Impact The Rule 5 pick failed to make the Twins' Opening Day roster and went unclaimed by other clubs, resulting in a move back to his original organization. Castellano will likely open the 2025 season in the rotation at Double-A Reading.

Fails to make roster The Twins informed Castellano that he won't make the Opening Day roster Sunday, so the club must place him on waivers, Bobby Nightengale of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.

Impact The 23-year-old was plucked from the Phillies during the Rule 5 Draft in December but struggled to a 7.59 ERA and 13:10 K:BB over 10.2 innings during spring training. Castellano will be offered back to Philadelphia if he passes through waivers unclaimed.

Impact Castellano has a 6.75 ERA with a 12:8 K:BB ratio in eight innings this spring. Walks have been a major issue, so it was a good sign he didn't issue any free passes Saturday. The Twins may keep the Rule 5 pick on the active roster and use him in low-leverage spots until several injured veterans (Michael Tonkin, Brock Stewart and Justin Topa) are able to return.
