Certainly speculative at this point, but topdrawersoccer lists Juan Castillo as one of 25 players to watch for the 2014 MLS SuperDraft.

F Juan Castillo, SMU

After scoring 10 goals in his freshman campaign, there were high expectations for what Castillo could accomplish in college. However, injuries and defenses designed to stop him have slowed him down over the past two seasons.

Got to get him totally healthy. In the games I saw him play last year, he played hard but didn't seem to be the same player as the year before. Hopefully he's all the way back to 100 percent, because this team could be really good if he has another big season. He and Tyler Engel could be a really effective pair.

Does anyone know about the new recruits? Any real scorers in that group?
