Nick Castellanos Not In Lineup Saturday
3 years agoCincinnati Reds outfielder Nick Castellanos (wrist) is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's matchup with the Brewers after exiting Friday's contest early. Castellanos apparently is still dealing with the after effects of being hit on the wrist by a pitch that led to his early exit. This is not too much of a surprise, as manager David Bell had said it was unclear last night whether he would return for the rest of the weekend series with Milwaukee. That being said, it's not believed to be a serious injury, and Castellanos remains day-to-day for now. With Castellanos out, Tyler Naquin is starting in right field on Saturday and batting fifth against Milwaukee, while Shogo Akiyama gets the start in center and is batting seventh.
