Willi Castro was born in Puerto Rico but went undrafted and was signed as an international free agent by the Cleveland Indians in 2013. Later traded to the Detroit Tigers, he made his major league debut in 2019. He struggled offensively with the Tigers, posting a .683 OPS (87 OPS+) and after the 2022 season, the Tigers declined to offer him arbitration, making him a free agent.

He was invited to Spring Training by the Twins in 2023 as a non-roster invitee and narrowly made the Twins' roster on Opening Day as the 26th man on the roster. After receiving only 40 plate appearances in April of that season, Castro started to heat up and had what was far and away the most successful season of his career to that point, posting a .750 OPS (106 OPS+). He was also a threat on the basepaths, swiping 34 bags while being caught only five times.
