Analysis:

Castillo is a likely 20-20 guy as long he gets the starts, but he still carries a fair amount of risk since all we've seen from him is 40 plate appearances last September. That said, the success of other high-priced Cuban players in recent years and Boston's stacked lineup means the reward for Castillo hitting on all cylinders is massive.
