Impact Castellanos and Bryson Stott went back-to-back with solo shots off of Luis Cessa in the second inning. The 30-year-old slugger then knocked an RBI double in the third. Castellanos improved his slash line to .267/.310/.398 with 38 extra-base hits and 58 RBI through 121 games. He's gone 19-for-51 (.373) during his active 12-game hitting streak.

Three extra-base hits in win Castellanos went 3-for-5 with a solo home run, two doubles and two additional runs in Tuesday's 11-4 win over the Reds.

Impact Over the past week, Castellanos had provided most of his fantasy value in the form of three stolen bases, but he finally came through with some long-awaited power production in Tuesday's victory. He produced multiple extra-base hits for only the fourth time this season, with Castellanos turning in two-double performances in each of those other three contests. Castellanos will look to keep slugging in the series finale in Cincinnati on Wednesday, when he'll start in right field and bat fifth.

Offering rare impact on bases Castellanos went 1-for-5 with an RBI, a run and a stolen base in Monday's 4-3 win over the Reds.

Impact The running game has never been a major part of Castellanos' fantasy skill set, but he's been surprisingly active on the bases of late. His stolen base Monday was his third in the past week, and he's now up to a career-high seven steals on the season. The unexpected production in that category likely isn't enough to offset the lack of production Castellanos has provided in the areas where he was expected to be an asset, however. He'll enter Tuesday's contest with a .258 average, 10 home runs, 55 RBI and 47 runs through 114 games.

Stays hot Saturday Castellanos went 2-for-4 with two runs and an RBI in Saturday's 11-5 win over the Nationals.

Impact Though he's mostly been a disappointing in his first season in Philadelphia after inking a five-year, $100 million deal in the spring, Castellanos has gotten off to a nice start to August. Through his first five games, Castellanos has gone 5-for-16 with two home runs, five RBI and five runs. He'll be included in the lineup for Sunday's series finale, manning right field while batting fifth.

Ends power drought Wednesday Castellanos went 1-for-3 with a walk and a two-run home run in Wednesday's 3-1 win over Atlanta.

Impact The 30-year-old went the entire month of July without hitting a home run, but Castellanos ended his 26-game drought in the eighth inning by taking Collin McHugh deep for the game-winning hit. It was only a matter of time before his power returned -- Castellanos is batting .375 (15-for-40) over his last 10 games, and while he has only nine homers in 103 games on the season, he's more than capable of putting together a big surge down the stretch.

Singles four times Castellanos went 4-for-5 with two RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 8-2 win over the Pirates.

Impact Castellanos collected four hits Sunday, giving him nine over his last four games. He's now slashing .257/.300/.373 with 30 extra-base hits and 49 RBI through 101 games on the year. Castellanos went 29-for-83 (.289) with nine runs scored and 27 strikeouts in 25 July appearances.

Strikeouts mounting Castellanos went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk and a run scored Saturday in the Phillies' 10-0 win over the Marlins.

Impact Even in a game in which the slumping Phillies offense produced one of its best run totals of the season, Castellanos still turned in a relatively modest line. He also struck out once on the day, bringing his strikeout rate to 29.8 percent thus far in July. The 30-year-old has thus far been a disappointment in his first season of a five-year, $100 million contract, slashing just .251/.298/.377 with eight home runs, four stolen bases, 46 RBI and 36 runs through 90 games.
