The Chicago White Sox are acquiring right-handed pitcher Luis Castillo from the Seattle Mariners for reliever Seranthony Dominguez, outfielder Nolan Jones and catching prospect Boston Smith, sources told EPSN's Jeff Passan. Castillo, 33, is 3-9 with a 5.06 ERA in 17 starts this season, giving up 107 hits in 99 1/2 innings pitched. He's signed through 2027 after inking a two-year, $20 million contract with the White Sox before this year. If the White Sox can get the best out of Castillo, he'll slot in a middle of the rotation that's recently featured Anthony Kay, Eric Fedde and rookie Noah Schultz. Castillo's numbers have been worse while playing in pitcher friendly T-Mobile Park this year -- though he's just a year removed from posting a 3.54 ERA over the course of 180 innings. The White Sox are still working on acquiring more talent before Monday's trade deadline.
