4 years agoDetroit Tigers third baseman/shortstop Willi Castro (shoulder) exited Saturday’s contest versus Kansas City early due to a sore right shoulder. Prior to his departure, Castro collected an RBI hit, bringing his average on the season to .349 with 24 RBI. He has come on rapidly in September, making a case for American League Rookie of the Year honors with an OPS near 1.000 for the month. Any kind of injury at this stage of the year likely spells the end of 2020, so unless Castro makes a significant recovery in the next few hours ahead of Sunday’s afternoon tilt, he can likely began looking towards ‘21, where he should merit season-long league consideration after his impressive 36-game stretch.--Jesse Borek
