Nick Castellanos homers, but Phillies fall to Mets
by Chris Schommer | Phillies Correspondent | Sun, Sep 22nd 8:01am EDT
Nick Castellanos went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in the Phillies' 6-3 loss to the Mets.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the defeat, Castellanos managed to add a little shine to his season with his 22nd homer. His batting average remains a modest .246, and while his power numbers are respectable, they haven't been enough to lift his overall fantasy impact significantly. With a high strikeout rate and a low walk rate, his on-base skills continue to be a weak spot. Fantasy managers should view Castellanos as a potential source of power, but his limited contributions in other categories and average-dependent metrics like BABIP (.284) suggest a cautious approach in relying on him as a consistent performer.
