Castillo (adductor) will throw a bullpen session Tuesday, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Castillo exited his first Cactus League appearance Feb. 22 with left adductor tightness and hasn't pitched since. He's ready to ramp up his throwing again but it's not clear when he might be available to pitch in a game. Castillo is in camp as a non-roster invitee, and the injury likely eliminated any chance he had to make the Opening Day roster.

Diamondbacks' Jose Castillo: Debuts for Triple-A club
Rotowire
Castillo (hand) has given up three earned runs on five hits and no walks while striking out two batters over 2.2 innings in three appearances since being reinstated from Triple-A Reno's 7-day injured list July 19.
Castillo opened the season on Reno's IL after suffering a hand injury in spring training. He began a rehab assignment in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League in late May, but he was pulled off the assignment after just one appearance. It's unclear if Castillo experienced a setback with the hand injury or was contending with a new injury, but he was cleared to resume the rehab assignment six weeks later before he finally got the green light to join the Triple-A club. Castillo has previously made 40 relief appearances at the big-league level from 2018 through 2023, but he looks to be a long ways away from getting a look in the Arizona bullpen.
