  Nick Castellanos Back From Injured List

  The Philadelphia Phillies reinstated outfielder Nick Castellanos (oblique) from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday and optioned catcher Donny Sands to Triple-A Lehigh Valley in a corresponding move. Castellanos is starting in right field and is hitting sixth on Tuesday against the Chicago Cubs and right-hander Marcus Stroman. The 30-year-old Castellanos missed almost a month with a right oblique strain and didn't go on a minor league rehab assignment, so it remains to be seen how effective he'll be at the plate for fantasy managers to close out what has been a very disappointing first year in Philly. He's returning to a .265/.305/.397 slash line with 13 home runs, 61 RBI, 53 runs scored and seven stolen bases in 499 at-bats. Castellanos made the All-Star team for the first time in 2021 and hit .309 with a career-high 34 home runs and 100 RBI.

  Nick Castellanos Will Return To The Phillies Next Week

  Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Nick Castellanos (oblique) will return to the team next week and forego a minor league rehab assignment, according to interim manager Rob Thompson. The 30-year-old outfielder, who has been out since early September, plans to do a full workout on Saturday and Sunday and hopes to rejoin the team for their series against the Chicago Cubs next weekend. If all goes according to plan, he would skip a minor league rehab assignment altogether. The team should provide an update on his status towards the end of this weekend. Castellanos is slashing .265/.305/.397 with 13 home runs, 61 RBI and seven stolen bases over 499 at-bats in what has been an underwhelming first season in Philadelphia.

  Nick Castellanos Suffers Setback

  Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Nick Castellanos (oblique) is backing off swinging after feeling stiffness in his oblique. Castellanos strained his oblique on September 2, and his progression hasn't gone as planned. He still has no date set for a possible return, and at this point it is fair to question if he will make any impact for fantasy managers the rest of the way. It has been a disaster of a season for the 2021 breakout star, and as soon as he was starting to come around he got injured. His .300/.333/.500 August slash line gives some sense of optimism for 2023 at least.

  Nick Castellanos Lands On The Injured List

  Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Nick Castellanos (oblique) has been placed on the 10-day injured list with a right oblique strain. The 30-year-old outfielder suffered the injury on Friday against the Giants and should be out a few weeks. He had been in and out of the lineup over the last 10 days while dealing with turf toe so perhaps the time off will give him a chance to heal that ailment as well. Outfielder Dalton Guthrie had his contract selected from Triple-A Lehigh Valley and has been added to the active roster.

  Nick Castellanos Returns To Lineup Friday

  Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Nick Castellanos (toe) is back in the starting lineup Friday night against Alex Cobb and the San Francisco Giants, batting sixth and playing right field. Castellanos was diagnosed with turf toe earlier in the week and missed three games dealing with the ailment. The 30-year-old has disappointed fantasy managers who drafted him as a 4-category star coming into the year, but he quietly put together a nice August in which he slashed .300/.333/.500 while knocking five long balls in 100 at-bats. If he can continue that productivity in September he could help win a few championships. Get him back in your lineups.

  Nick Castellanos Remains Sidelined Wednesday

  Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Nick Castellanos (toe) remains out of the starting lineup on Wednesday night against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Castellanos is dealing with a case of turf toe and will miss his second straight game. With a scheduled day off on Thursday, there's a chance that he'll be back in the lineup for the start of a series against the San Francisco Giants on Friday. Fantasy managers are hoping he can return soon, as he's gone 30-for-100 (.300) with five home runs, 12 RBI and 13 runs scored in 26 games in August. Matt Vierling will get another start in right field and hit seventh on Wednesday against Diamondbacks left-hander Tommy Henry. On the season, Vierling has a .232 average (56-for-241) with five long balls, 20 RBI, 32 runs scored and six stolen bases for the Phils.

  Nick Castellanos Absent On Tuesday

  Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Nick Castellanos (toe) remains out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. It sounds like the right-handed slugger is still working through a case of turf toe. This shouldn't sideline him for long and it sounds like he is available off the bench on Tuesday. Fantasy managers might only be without Castellanos for one more game. Kyle Schwarber, Brandon Marsh, and Matt Vierling will patrol the outfield on Tuesday.
