The Dodgers would not have been thrilled about $265 million, and the expensive players they might have sent to Miami — say Gonzalez, Brandon McCarthy and/or Scott Kazmir — probably would not have been as easy for the Marlins to trade as Castro, who can play second base and shortstop and hit .300 with 16 home runs last season. (Gonzalez also could have vetoed a trade.)
