Miguel Castro: Released by Arizona
The Diamondbacks released Castro on Wednesday.
Castro went unclaimed after Arizona sent him to waivers, and now he's officially a free agent. The veteran reliever missed significant time with a shoulder injury this season and when healthy posted a 5.93 ERA and 8:3 K:BB over 13.2 innings. However, Castro's solid track record should earn him another look somewhere, likely on a minor-league contract.

Diamondbacks' Miguel Castro: Allows eighth-inning run
Castro allowed one run on two hits over one-third of an inning in Friday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to Atlanta.
Castro, who entered with one out in the eighth inning and a string of righties due up, gave up a pair of doubles that started Atlanta's comeback from a 5-2 deficit. Kevin Ginkel could not hold the lead in the ninth, as the Diamondbacks didn't execute well -- pitching or fielding -- at the end of the game. The right-handed Castro is part of the setup crew and will get high-leverage appearances.

Diamondbacks' Miguel Castro: Blows lead, takes loss
Castro (5-4) was tagged with Thursday's loss to Atlanta. He allowed three runs on two hits and one walk over two-thirds of an inning.
Castro, who began the eighth inning protecting a 5-3 lead, sandwiched a pair of outs around a double before getting into trouble. He walked Ozzie Albies before Austin Riley took him deep for a three-run home run. Although Castro's 3.4 BB/9 is an improvement over previous seasons, it's still a high number and the right-hander walked a delicate line before Thursday's costly free pass. A one-time part of the closer picture, Castro has since returned to a middle-relief role, one in which he's had recent success. Castro entered the game with a 1.50 ERA over his previous 12 innings.
