Fabio Castillo: Inks deal in Japan

Castillo signed a deal in Japan with the Seibu Lions on Tuesday, Yahoo! Japan reports.

Castillo finally saw his major-league dream realized over two brief appearances with the Dodgers last season, but he was ultimately designated for assignment in September. The 28-year-old is expected to start in Japan, after he was used in relief for much of his career stateside while playing in the minors.
