All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!
Knowing the Reds. Whoever they trade Castillo to. They will force them to take Moose.
So the return will make the Cueto trade look good in comparison.
If Castillo is going to be the best starting pitcher on the market at the trade deadline, the Reds absolutely need to get opposing teams to compete against one another for the best offer. Historically, Reds GMs haven't seemed to be very good at doing that, and just jumping at the first offer that they like.
My dad got to enjoy 3 Reds World Championships by the time he was my age. So far, I've only gotten to enjoy one. Step it up Redlegs!

That's my fear as well, but a small piece of me is optimistic that the Reds have learned their lesson. This market is set up perfectly for the Reds to bring back a massive haul for Castillo. I'm rooting for some of these fringe teams like Texas to go on a winning streak and get into the bidding. I would be disappointed if the Reds dont bring back an organization's top prospect that is close to knocking on the door to the bigs.
Whatever the return ends up being for Castillo, you can be assured of this: The Reds fans will be upset they didn't get more, and the other teams fans will be upset what they gave up for Castillo.
...the 2-2 to Woodsen and here it comes...and it is swung on and missed! And Tom Browning has pitched a perfect game! Twenty-seven outs in a row, and he is being mobbed by his teammates, just to the thirdbase side of the mound.
