Nick Castellanos Fantasy

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Nick Castellanos went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer and a walk in a 3-2 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates on Sunday. Castellanos took Pittsburgh starter Chad Kuhl deep for a two-run shot in the third inning, providing the only runs the Reds would score on the afternoon. Castellanos is hitting .243 with 12 homers, 28 runs, and 27 RBI in his first season with Cincinnati. He has cooled down after a hot start, hitting just .136 with two homers over his last seven games, but Castellanos remains an excellent source of power numbers in fantasy leagues.
