Sox And Phils To Hold Private Castillo Workouts

According to CBSSports.com's Jon Heyman, the Red Sox and Phillies—but notably not The Evil Empire—will hold private workouts for 27-year old Cuban defector Rusney Castillo. The speedy 5'9" outfielder escaped Fidel Castro's 'Socialist Paradise' (AKA Prison Island) and can hook on with any MLB club without hitting their international bonus pool money. It's estimated that Castillo will sign for between $25 and $35 million.
