I think they will trade him as long as Hudson gets through spring training healthy. I think Punto and Harris are going to be needed at 3B so Casilla might have to learn how to play shortstop this spring if he wants to make the Twins. I’m not as high on Casilla as you are.

Casilla is young and has a lot of upside, so if the Twins can get some good prospects for him, it wouldn't surprise us to see the Twins trade him. If they keep Casilla, he is really only your back up 2nd baseman. Punto is your true utility guy, as he has the ability to play 2nd, short and 3rd well. Harris can fill all those spots as well, but his strengths so far have been 2nd and 3rd.
