Returns to Houston
Castro agreed Thursday with the Astros on a two-year, $7 million contract, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact
After stops with the Twins, Angels and Padres across the last four seasons, Castro will return to the organization that made him a first-round selection in the 2008 first-year player draft. According to Jake Kaplan of The Athletic, Houston is planning to deploy Castro as its No. 2 catcher behind defensive stalwart Martin Maldonado, with Kaplan estimating that the latter will garner about 60 or 65 percent of the starts. If that prediction holds true, Castro likely wouldn't have much fantasy value outside of AL-only leagues, despite possessing the better bat of the two backstops in recent years.

Starting Game 3
Castro (jaw) will catch and bat ninth in Game 3 of the NLDS against the Dodgers on Thursday.
Impact
Castro left the final game of the regular season with a sprained jaw and hasn't played since. Whether that was due to the injury or simply because the Padres preferred Austin Nola as the everyday catcher isn't entirely clear.

Diagnosed with sprained jaw
Castro was diagnosed with a sprained jaw but should be ready for Wednesday's contest, Annie Heilbrunn of the San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
Impact
Castro left Sunday's regular-season finale after taking a foul tip off the face mask, and he's dealing with a jaw injury. Manager Jayce Tingler said that he should be ready for Game 1 of the Wild Card Series, but the team will need to see how he recovers prior to determining his status.

Exits with trainer
Castro left Sunday's game against the Giants in the bottom of the sixth inning with an apparent injury, Kerry Crowley of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Impact

Belts key double in Padres debut
Castro went 1-for-5 with a double, a run and two RBI in a victory versus the Angels on Wednesday.
Impact
Though the Padres ultimately won the game by seven runs, it was a tight affair most of the way. Castro played a key role in turning the tide in the Padres' direction, striking a two-run double in the eighth inning to break a 3-3 tie. The hit was the backstop's first since the Angels traded him to San Diego on Sunday.

Sent to San Diego
Castro was acquired by the Padres from the Angels on Sunday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.
Impact
The writing was on the wall when Castro was a late scratch from Sunday's lineup, and discussions apparently progressed quickly from there. The trade return remains unclear, but it will need to be a player or players in the Padres' 60-player pool, a player to be named later or cash considerations. Castro has a .708 OPS in 18 games and should operate as the Friars' primary backstop once he officially joins the team.

Scratched amid trade talks
Castro was a late scratch for Sunday's game against the Mariners due to ongoing trade discussions, Jon Heyman of MLB Network reports.
Impact
No agreement has been reached, but the Angels will play it safe and keep Castro on the bench ahead of Monday's trade deadline. The Padres appear to be the current favorites for a potential deal. Anthony Bemboom is starting in his place Sunday and would be in line for an increased role if a trade is completed.
