Derek Jeter was tearing up Triple AAA as a 21 year old....IMO the only thing that stops Starlin Castro from becoming great is a freak injury or Burger King.
7 SS all-time with over 1,000 PAs have had a .370 OBP or better while walking under 10%. The lowest BA there is .304. That was in the 20's. Since WW2, only two guys have done it. Jeter and HanRam. One has hit .313 and the other .314. So are we really saying that Castro will be as good as HanRam and Jeter? I highly doubt it.

OK, that Burger King comment is priceless!
Castro in his wildest dreams ain't no Miggy. The kid ain't getting any bigger stature wise.

Scouts think he will get bigger and why they think he could become 20-25 HR guy
No doubt Miggy is much bigger and stronger. But he has Miggy talent with the bat not the power but the kid can flat out hit the ball. Although i think Castro can get enoght power to be a 25-30 hr guy. I was just pointing out some guys are so talented that even distractions wont stop them. Most ball players back in the day were fat and still really good baseball players.
Castro has 34 swings this year and he has made contact on every single one so far.
