Nick Castellanos is not in the Philadelphia Phillies lineup Tuesday, but it's not because he's injured or being given a day off. Castellanos is not in the lineup after making an "inappropriate comment" when he was pulled from Monday's game,

Nick Castellanos has to sit in his room on Tuesday and think about what he did before he gets to play ball again. For the first time since September 2023, the Philadelphia Phillies slugging outfielder is out of the lineup due to a manager's decision, but that's the least interesting part of what's happening here.

Philadelphia Phillies manager Rom Thomson and right-fielder Nick Castellanos both confirmed to reporters that the veteran outfielder was held out of Tuesday's lineup against the Miami Marlins after comments he made Monday after being pulled.
