Nick Castellanos is a fantasy baseball trade target for Week 8 (2024). Is Nick Castellanos a fantasy baseball buy or sell? Read the trade analysis and advice.
BALLER MOVE: Buy Nick Castellanos
ANALYSIS: Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Nick Castellanos is not off to a great start in 2024. He is batting just .207 with two HRs, three doubles, and 12 RBI through the first 38 games. Castellanos' metrics are also not particularly great, either. His expected batting average (.224), expected slugging (.342), average exit velocity (87 mph), and hard-hit rate (36.3%) all rank in the bottom half of the league.
Despite all those things working against Castellanos in the early going, he's a player fantasy managers should be looking to buy low on. It also shouldn't take a lot to acquire the Phillies outfielder, so he's certainly someone to trade for in most formats heading into Week 8.
It's been tough at times to watch Castellanos at the plate this year. But don't forget, we aren't even two months into the season yet, and he has totaled at least 29 HRs and 100 RBI in two of the past three campaigns. He also hits in one of the best lineups in baseball, so opportunities should continue to find him. Now is the time to buy him before he starts to really heat up at the plate. The 32-year-old has seven hits over the past five contests.
