I don't think anyone realistically thinks there are any scenarios where the Cubs won't have to pay at least some portion of Bradley's salary. So getting a solid major league 2B in exchange seems reasonable.
Castillo is a switch hitter with some speed. His lifetime OBP is .369 and it was .387 last season, showing that he isn't over the hill at age 34. His fielding isn't great, but it's not horrible either. It would give Castro another year with Theriot at SS.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
