Miguel Castro: Everything you need to know

Castro (knee) signed a contract Feb. 13 with Mexican League club Leones de Yucatan. Jon Heyman of the New York Post previously reported Jan. 15 that Castro had agreed to a minor-league contract with the Angels, but the veteran right-hander never reported to spring training after the deal evidently fell through. The 31-year-old will instead head south of the border to continue his playing career after he most recently spent the 2025 season as a member of the White Sox, with whom he posted a 7.50 ERA and 1.67 WHIP in six innings over his six relief appearances. Castro missed the final four months of last season while recovering from a torn patellar tendon in his right knee, but he's presumably healthy now.

Castro (knee) signed a minor-league contract with the Angels on Thursday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports. Castro made six appearances with the White Sox last year, during which he allowed five runs on five hits and five walks while striking out four batters over six innings before suffering a season-ending knee injury in late May. It's unclear where he currently stands in his recovery, but once healthy, the 31-year-old reliever will provide organizational depth at Triple-A Salt Lake and could make a handful of appearances for the Halos over the course of the season.

The White Sox transferred Castro (knee) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Wednesday. The move frees up a spot on the 40-man roster for right-hander Ryan Cusick, whom the White Sox claimed off waivers from the Tigers. Castro will miss the rest of the season after undergoing surgery Tuesday to repair a torn patellar tendon in his right knee.
