FACTS/FLUKES: L. Castillo, J. Turner, McNeil, W. Smith, K. Calhoun

Castillo enters ace ADP territory... A strong showing in 2020 from Luis Castillo (RHP, CIN) followed up his 226 strikeouts, 3.40 ERA, and 1.14 in 191 IP in 2019. So far in 2021 drafts, fantasy managers have selected the right hander at an ADP of 28. With his 89 strikeouts, 3.21 ERA, and 1.23 in 70 IP in 2020, can we expect continued success?
