Overall: The prize of the Blue Jays 2019 international class, De Castro's smooth defensive actions point to him being a future plus defender at shortstop. He's very thin, and is extremely projectable but lacks present strength. His offense is way behind his defense at the moment, and it will likely always be that way, but he should close the gap as he adds strength while maintaining his quick-twitch athleticism. His offensive game is built on making contact, which is a profile the Blue Jays look for, and do very well at developing. He's a bonafide everyday guy if he gets stronger.
