Castro understands that he's not showing up to camp to win a major league job.
"I think the goal is, obviously, I want to go and do as best as I can," he said.
Castro must build on his offseason showing in Hawaii.
"It was a great experience," he said of Hawaii. "The league was composed from guys from low-A, high-A and some guys from Double-A. It was a good experience to go there and do well against good players from all different organizations and levels from minor league baseball."
Right-handed pitcher Bud Norris, right-hander Sergio Perez, catcher Lou Santangelo and third baseman Chris Johnson are the other top Astros prospects who will get a chance to participate in spring training as non-roster invitees.
