Nick Castellanos’ Future with the Phillies
Nick Castellanos’ tenure with the Philadelphia Phillies is nearing its end, as he has been instructed not to report to the team’s complex, with trade or release expected within days. The 33-year-old outfielder struggles with a .250 batting average and a negative-1.0 WAR last season, compounded by tensions with manager Rob Thomson. Castellanos is in the final year of a $100 million contract, due $20 million in 2026. His performance and the signing of Adolis Garcia have diminished his role on a roster filled with similar players.
