Nearly two months after acquiring starting pitcher Luis Castillo at the trade deadline, the Seattle Mariners have locked up the right-hander for the next five seasons. 

On Saturday, the Mariners announced an agreement with Castillo on a contract extension running through 2027, with player and club options for 2028.

According to ESPN's Jeff Passan, the extension will pay the two-time All-Star $108 million over five years, with the sixth-year vesting option possibly increasing its worth to $133 million. 

Passan added another interesting nugget about the deal. Castillo's new contract, which begins in 2023, includes a unique injury clause. Over the last three years of the contract, if Castillo undergoes Tommy John surgery on his throwing elbow, the Mariners will receive a $5 million option for the 2028 season.
