Fantasy Impact:

This undoubtedly rules Castro out for the remainder of the regular season but he's got a shot to return if the Nationals were to make the playoffs.

Castro was off to a decent start before breaking his wrist, slashing .267/.302/.450 with two home runs and four RBI across 60 at-bats.
