Phillies' Nick Castellanos: Willing to play first base
Nick Castellanos said Friday that he would "really welcome" playing first base if asked, MLB Network reports.Castellanos has never played first base before and has been a full-time right fielder since 2018. However, he came up through the minors as a third baseman and that was his primary position through his first five seasons in the big leagues, so he's not foreign to the infield. Castellanos is set to make $20 million in 2026 in his final year under contract with the Philadelphia Phillies, but the expectation is he will be either traded or released by Philadelphia this offseason.
