Castillo had his contract selected by the Dodgers on Thursday and was subsequently optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City.

Castillo is putting together a nice season in the Dodgers' minor-league system, most notably producing a 3.65 ERA and 1.08 WHIP in seven starts for Oklahoma City. The move is a bit perplexing since it doesn't seem like there's really a spot in the big leagues for him in the near future unless some injuries crop up, but this makes it a bit easier for him to come up if the need arises. Justin Marks, who was recently acquired from the Rays, was designated for assignment to make room for him on the 40-man roster.
