Castillo picked up the save in Thursday's Opening Day win, holding the Marlins scoreless while recording two strikeouts.
EDGE Analysis
The 27-year-old nearly gave up a game-tying homer to Jesus Aguilar, but it fell just short of the wall and he was able to escape without any damage. Over the last two seasons, Castillo has converted 12 of 15 save opportunities to go with a career-best 1.66 ERA and 1.06 WHIP across 21.2 innings (22 appearances) in 2020. He looks like the top closing option for the Rays this year, as Pete Fairbanks pitched the eighth in this one.
