Nick Castellanos has to sit in his room on Tuesday and think about what he did before he gets to play ball again. For the first time since September 2023, the Philadelphia Phillies slugging outfielder is out of the lineup due to a manager's decision, but that's the least interesting part of what's happening here.

After starting 236 regular season games dating back to September 2023, Phillies right fielder Castellanos will start Tuesday's game in Miami on the bench.

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Nick Castellanos comments on his benching by Rob Thomson, "It's his decision. He's the manager."
