Four hits, one steal in win Castellanos went 4-for-5 with an RBI and a stolen base in Sunday's 8-5 win over the Padres.

Impact Castellanos wasn't able to flex any power Sunday, as all four hits were singles, but he had just three hits across his previous eight games. The outfielder was able to go 1-for-2 on the basepaths as well, as he stole second in the first inning but got caught when he tried again in the third. The 30-year-old now has a .252/.306/.387 slash line with seven home runs, 37 RBI, 30 runs scored, three steals and 17 doubles across 73 contests. He will likely continue to get regular playing time in right field, but Bryce Harper's broken thumb should allow Castellanos to rest his legs more frequently as the designated hitter.

Resting Monday Castellanos will sit Monday against the Marlins.

Impact Castellanos finds himself on the bench for just the second time this season. He remains something of a disappointment at the plate, though his .251/.309/.405 slash line is at least good for a league-average 100 wRC+ in this year's low-scoring environment. A hitless day Sunday against the Diamondbacks ended a five-game hitting streak. Odubel Herrera will start in right field in his absence.

Back in cleanup spot Castellanos will start in right field and bat cleanup in Thursday's game against the Padres, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.

Impact While Bryce Harper (elbow) was sidelined for Wednesday's 3-0 win, Castellanos was moved into the No. 3 spot for third time all season and the first time since April 18. The change didn't bear favorable results, as Castellanos struck out three times and drew a walk across his four at-bats. Harper remains on the bench Thursday, but Castellanos will move back to his customary cleanup spot. Over the 32 games this season in which he's batted fourth, Castellanos has slashed .279/.341/.467.

Impact The 30-year-old continues to deliver in his first campaign with the Phillies. Castellanos is slashing .311/.374/.505 through 28 games with four homers, a steal, 15 runs and 17 RBI while consistently hitting cleanup behind Bryce Harper, a spot in the lineup that should afford him plenty of run-producing opportunities over the summer.
