Nick Castellanos went 1-for-5 in the Phillies' 9-3 victory over the Padres, highlighted by a solo home run.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance, while not groundbreaking, does offer a glimmer of hope for fantasy managers who have been enduring Castellanos's sluggish start to the season. With a batting average lingering around .178 through 27 games, any sign of power is a welcome sight. However, his overall lack of production across multiple categories—coupled with a low walk rate and a high strikeout rate—suggests that relying on him as anything more than a depth option in fantasy lineups could be risky. Managers should monitor if this home run can spark a turnaround, but expectations should be tempered given his performance thus far.
