Nick Castellanos News
Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Nick Castellanos turned in another disappointing game at the plate in Monday's 2-1 extra-innings win over the Rockies. Castellanos went 0-for-4 with a strikeout batting sixth. The 32-year-old has gotten off to a very slow start offensively, slashing just .177/.250/.177 with no home runs and five RBI in 68 plate appearances. However, fantasy managers should give him a bit of a leash given his career track record and strong 2023 season.
Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Nick Castellanos is hitting in the seven-hole for Friday's season opener versus the Atlanta Braves and right-hander Spencer Strider. The veteran largely hit somewhere in the top four in the lineup for much of the 2023 season but was moved down into the seven-hole more frequently in September. Nonetheless, it was a bounce-back season for the 32-year-old who hit .272 with 29 home runs while setting career highs with 106 RBI and 11 stolen bases. It was the third time in his career he has reached the century mark in RBI while his previous career-high in steals was seven in the 2022 season. The increase in stolen base attempts sure boosts his fantasy value but fantasy managers should brace for a few less steals in 2024.
Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Nick Castellanos went hitless in a pair of at-bats in Friday's Grapefruit League contest versus the Miami Marlins. The veteran flew out to center field in his first trip to the plate in the second inning before lining out to third base in the fourth. The hitless effort lowered his spring-training average to just .125 (1-for-8) with a pair of strikeouts against zero walks across eight trips to the plate. The 31-year-old was involved in minor trade speculation this offseason on the heels of a season that saw him hit .272 with 29 home runs, 11 stolen bases, and a career-high 106 RBI and 11 stolen bases. Aside from an odd 2022 season, Castellanos is a fairly safe power bet with ATC projecting 24 home runs, eight stolen bases, 87 RBI, and a .263 average for the outfielder in the 2024 season.

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Nick Castellanos enjoyed a bounce-back season in 2023 and continues to be a middle-of-the-lineup menace. His 2022 season saw him hit just 13 home runs in 138 games while his isolated power dipped all the way to just .126, by far a career-low. However, he returned in 2023 to slug 29 home runs while adding another 37 doubles and a pair of triples to his ledger, good for a .204 ISO that was right in line with his .199 career mark. His walk rates continue to flounder (5.4% in 2023) but the 31-year-old drove in a career-high 106 runs a season ago, the second time in three years he has reached the century mark in RBI. His off-and-on trend over the last four seasons is a concern and his .323 xwOBA ranked in the league's 42nd percentile last season. However, he has a top supporting cast that will yield plenty of run-scoring and run-producing opportunities again in 2023. He isn't likely worth a top-100 pick like many of his Phillies teammates but Castellanos' 103.58 ADP is right in line with RotoBaller's 105 ranking, giving him fair value on draft day.
