Nick Castellanos Back From Illness Tuesday
1 year agoPhiladelphia Phillies outfielder Nick Castellanos (illness) is back in the starting lineup against right-hander Spencer Strider and the division-rival Atlanta Braves on Tuesday. Castellanos is in right field and is hitting in the three-hole. He missed the final two games of the weekend series against the Oakland Athletics with an upset stomach, but he's feeling better now and should be returned to all starting fantasy lineups. The 31-year-old veteran slugger is in the midst of a bounce-back year in his second year in Philadelphia, hitting .315 (87-for-276) with 23 doubles, a triple, eight home runs, 42 RBI, four steals and 44 runs scored in 70 games. Castellanos is also riding a six-game hitting streak in which he's gone 10-for-28 (.357) with two doubles, a homer, six RBI and a steal.
