Eligibility
Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Nick Castellanos is out of the starting lineup Tuesday versus the Houston Astros.
Fantasy Impact
Castellanos' absence from the starting lineup comes as little surprise following the Phillies' postseason-clinching victory over Houston on Monday. Dalton Guthrie will replace Castellanos in right field and hit eighth in the Phillies' lineup.
Nick Castellanos went 3-for-4 in a loss to the Cubs Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Castellanos has collected four hits in seven at-bats since returning to the lineup. The 30-year-old is slashing .269/.309/.399 with 13 home runs, 61 runs batted in, and seven stolen bases this season.
Nick Castellanos (oblique) has been activated from the 10-day IL. Donny Sands has been sent down to Triple-A.
Fantasy Impact
Castellanos has been out since 9/2 but will return in time to help the Phillies secure a playoff spot. He was hitting well in the 10 games prior to his injury, hitting .295 with 2 HRs and a 113 wRC+. He should be in the lineup nearly every day from here on out.
Phillies interim manager Rob Thomson said Nick Castellanos remains without a timetable to return.
Fantasy Impact
Castellanos was placed on the injured list with a right oblique strain on September 4. "He'll start swinging again here in the next couple of days," Thomson said.
Nick Castellanos (right oblique) is scheduled to take swings Tuesday in the batting cage. He took 30 swings in the batting cage Sunday.
Fantasy Impact
Castellanos landed on the IL on September 4th with a right oblique strain. The team is unsure if Castellanos will need a rehab assignment or not, but should know more after his time in the batting cage today. Fantasy managers will want to monitor his status after his rehab work Tuesday.
