Elvis Andrus had a .702 OPS last year in his first year at MLB. I think that's a safe projection for Castro too.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Castro's offense is rated much higher than Andrus.

I'm not sure I would say much higher, but Castro did put up much better minor league stats. Anyway, I wasn't really comparing the two as much as I was trying to keep everybody's expectations from going through the roof on a rookie shortstop.

Also, responding to an earlier post, I think it's possible Castro could have a set back if he doesn't take to the MLB game right away. However, given the way he's handled increases in competition in the past, I'm fairly confident he can at least match what Andrus did in his rookie season and I think that's perfectly acceptable.
