Antonio Castro brings pop, patience, and playoff-level pedigree to Cal Poly’s infield
In the 2026 season, Antonio Castro has shown a solid all-around freshman profile for Cal Poly, hitting .208 with a .345 OBP, .361 SLG, 2 homers, 13 RBI, and 3 steals across 33 games while also handling 18 starts in the field. He’s more than a stat line: his high school résumé screams impact bat, after batting .426 with 45 RBI, 7 HR, and a CIF-NorCal title at De La Salle, and he’s already flashed gap power with a bases-clearing triple and a seven-game hitting streak. Castro looks like a gritty, coachable infielder with upside who fits teams that value plate discipline, athletic infield coverage, and sneaky game-changing pop.
