Player Outlook
Nick Castellanos was one of just four players to appear in all 162 games last season, allowing him to reach 23 homers, six steals, 80 runs and 86 RBI on a respectable but unexciting .254/.311/.431 slash line. With no obvious threats to his playing time, $40 million remaining on his contract over the next two seasons and a fairly durable health track record, he could be one of the better compilers in fantasy baseball again in 2025, riding everyday at-bats in a strong lineup with a hitter-friendly home park to big counting-stat totals. But we can't ignore the fact that his real-world profile already looks ill-suited to an everyday job on a contender, with his lack of walks (6.2%) keeping him to a modest 105 wRC+ and a lack of value with his legs or glove limiting him to 0.4 fWAR. A step back at the plate in his age-33 season could threaten his everyday role even without an obvious alternative on the roster, leaving him unable to post the totals fantasy managers are used to.

  • Phillies' Nick Castellanos: Back in action Saturday

    Rotowire
    Castellanos (illness) will start in right field and bat sixth in Saturday's Grapefruit League game against Detroit. Castellanos has missed the past couple of days due to an illness, but he appears to be feeling better now and ready to return to the field. The 33-year-old outfielder is off to a slow start in the Grapefruit League, logging just three hits in 21 at-bats while striking out nine times.

  • Phillies' Nick Castellanos: Managing illness

    Rotowire
    Castellanos was held out of Thursday's Grapefruit League game versus Atlanta due to an illness, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports. Castellanos hasn't played in a game since Sunday, though only Thursday's absence can be attributed to his illness. He'll likely take another day or two to rest before returning to the Phillies' lineup.

  • Phillies' Nick Castellanos: Launches first spring home run

    Rotowire
    Castellanos launched his first home run of the spring in Thursday's Grapefruit League game against the Rays, adding two runs scored and a walk. It was an encouraging effort by Castellanos, who belted an opposite-field homer in the fourth inning Thursday after going just 2-for-14 in his first five games this spring. The 33-year-old outfielder played all 162 games last season, and he should have plenty of RBI upside while batting in the heart of a potent Phillies lineup.

    Rotowire
    Castellanos went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Thursday's 5-4 win over Atlanta.

The veteran outfielder is slashing .250/.303/.425 with 19 homers, 73 RBI, 65 runs scored and five stolen bases over 134 contests this year, but he's batted a much more reliable .296 (42-for-142) since the All-Star break, which is more in line with his usual production.

The right-hander is no stranger to the long ball, slugging 29 home runs across 157 games in the regular season, but this hot stretch has come at an opportune time in these must-win matches. Castellanos is now slashing an electric .391/.440/1.000 line in 25 plate appearances this postseason with four home runs, six runs and five RBI. The outfielder will look to keep the streak going in the NLCS next week against the Diamondbacks.
