Willi Castro Still Out on Sunday for Rockies in Game 1 of Doubleheader
Colorado Rockies infielder Willi Castro (knee) remains out of the starting nine for Sunday's first game of a doubleheader at Citi Field against the New York Mets, according to MLB.com. Edouardo Julien is starting at second base and batting leadoff against Mets right-hander Nolan McLean. Castro left Thursday's game early with knee soreness and hasn't played since, and it's unclear if he'll be ready to return to the lineup for Game 2 of Sunday's doubleheader. The 29-year-old switch-hitting Puerto Rican utility man is quickly losing value in deeper fantasy leagues due to poor performance and injuries early on in 2026. He has hit .246 (17-for-69) with a homer, nine RBI, 10 runs scored, and two stolen bases in his first 21 games, and he could continue to lose playing time at the keystone to both Julien and Tyler Freeman, even when fully healthy. Castro is only rostered in 12% of Yahoo leagues currently.
