Boston Announces Castillo Will Retire
Wednesday, April 8th , 2026
His Boston Red Sox teammates were not terribly surprised when Jose Castillo announced his retirement today.
In a low-key affair, Castillo explained his rationale.
"My aches and pains have caught up with me. They don't seem to go away like they used to when I was a kid," he said. "I'm spending more and more time in the trainer's room and less and less time preparing for my next game. I've come to a realization that I've done what I can in this game and spending more time playing baseball is just stealing from my future self."
When asked, the team manager noted "Jose has always been an honest man and when he says he's done, well, he's done."
