Detroit — Tigers president Scott Harris has seen the best and worst of right-handed reliever Kervin Castro, who he’s bringing to Detroit on a minor-league deal.
Castro, a native Venezuelan who turns 24 on Feb. 7, made his big-league debut while Harris was with the Giants in 2021. He didn’t allow an earned run in 13.1 innings, striking out 13 and walking four.
Nothing has gone that well for him since. The Giants released him last August and he landed with the Cubs where he was tagged for nine runs (three home runs) in 10.
