Harold Castro - Page 5 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Sits after two straight starts Castro is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians,

Impact Castro picked up starts at third base and shortstop between the past two games, going 3-for-9 with a run scored. He remains without a clear path to an everyday role, but he should continue to crack the lineup at least a few times per week while he holds down a .712 OPS for the season and has the ability to play multiple positions.

Snaps skid Saturday Castro went 3-for-4 with a triple, an RBI and a run scored in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Diamondbacks.

Impact Castro knocked an RBI triple to open the scoring in the fourth inning. He was also on base with a single before scoring on Kody Clemens' sixth-inning blast. Prior to Saturday, Castro had gone 0-for-17 in his last five games, which included a couple of absences due to a calf injury. The infielder has a serviceable .286/.302/.442 slash line with four home runs, 17 RBI and 18 runs scored in 47 contests. He hasn't attempted a stolen base, but he has notched two triples and eight doubles.

Back in lineup Castro (calf) is starting Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.

Remains out Tuesday Castro (calf) remains on the bench Tuesday against the Red Sox.

Impact Castro left Sunday's series finale against the Rangers with calf tightness and didn't play Monday. His absence isn't necessarily injury-related, however, as the return of Jeimer Candelario (shoulder) means Castro no longer needs to start at third base. Whether or not he's available in a bench role Tuesday is unclear.

Not starting Monday Castro (calf) is out of the lineup for Monday's game in Boston.

Impact Castro is day-to-day after exiting Sunday's 7-3 win due to calf tightness, but even if he avoided an injury to close out the weekend, he would likely be on the outside looking in for a spot in Detroit's lineup. The Tigers reinstated Jeimer Candelario (shoulder) from the 10-day injured list and will immediately slot him back in the starting nine at third base, the position Castro had been primarily playing for the past two weeks. Assuming his calf issue doesn't force him to the IL, Castro will likely handle a utility role for Detroit moving forward.

Registers three more hits Tuesday Castro went 3-for-4 with a double in Tuesday's loss to the White Sox.

Impact Castro recorded three hits for the second consecutive game, pushing his average to .308 for the season. Unfortunately, the seven hitters behind Castro recorded just three hits combined, so he wasn't able to come around to score at any point. The versatile 28-year-old is still hitting well and should play most days for a Detroit team that is desperate for offensive production.

Records three hits Monday Castro went 3-for-5 with a run scored and two RBI in Monday's loss to the White Sox.

Impact All three hits were singles but fantasy managers won't complain about the effort. Castro, who batted second, and leadoff man Willi Castro combined for five hits, three runs scored and three RBI. Harold Castro doesn't always have a regular spot on the diamond, though he's been effective offensively no matter where he plays, and he should continue to see time at third base in the short term with Jeimer Candelario (shoulder) out.
