Braves officials presented Juan Castillo to members of the local print media today as their new starting pitcher.
The deal, worth $24,000,000, guarantees the 32-year-old a home in Atlanta for 3 years. It should improve the ballclub, assuming he plays to his potential.
In his career Castillo has compiled an ERA of 4.32 with 117 victories and 89 defeats and has held opponents to a .261 batting average.
