Castro agreed to a one-year, $1.275 million contract with the Tigers on Tuesday to avoid arbitration, Kiley McDaniel of ESPN.com reports.
Castro is in his first year of arbitration eligibility after appearing in 106 games for the Tigers in 2021. He hit .283 with 37 RBI in 339 plate appearances, but he didn't provide much fantasy value with three homers and one stolen base. Castro should work in a utility role again in 2022.
