Even if you have no faith in him ever amounting to anything, I doubt that he's close to reaching his peak value in a trade or otherwise.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Well that's not necessarily true. Say he sucks it up next year?

All I'm saying is that it is a pretty rare occurrence to trade someone this young unless you can get someone who is a difference maker for the big league squad. I doubt that there are enough teams out there who are that sold on Castro right now that would be willing to give us equal value, or what we perceive equal value to be, at least not yet anyway. No one said a word about him until this season, and it's still really early in this kid's development.
