NICK CASTELLANOS NEWS

Remains scorching hot Castellanos went 2-for-5 with a double, a home run, two runs scored and three RBI in Friday's 8-3 win over the Brewers.

Impact His unbelievable run continued in Milwaukee with his 10th and 11th extra-base hits of the campaign -- the most in baseball -- including his seventh long ball. Castellanos is up to .340/.411/.840 and has pretty much single-handedly carried the Reds' offense so far. He's been batting second in recent days.

Continues blistering run Castellanos went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and two strikeouts in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to Cleveland.

Impact This is getting silly; Castellanos has hit safely in 11 straight games to begin his Reds career and has launched six home runs in his last seven games. With that, he now sits tied with Aaron Judge atop the home-run leaderboard. Four of the six homers have come at Great American Ball Park -- the Reds have played just three road games so far.

Two more homers Castellanos went 3-for-7 with a walk, two home runs, three RBI and two runs scored across both games of Sunday's doubleheader against the Tigers.

Impact Castellanos was the story of the matinee; he slugged two homers against his former team in the first three innings but then made a bad error in the outfield which led to three unearned runs against Lucas Sims. Cincinnati won anyway, and it's easy to forgive Castellanos for one lowlight given all the highlights he has provided so far. The 28-year-old has hit safely in all nine games and is tied for fourth in the majors in RBI with 11.

Takes loss Sunday Jimenez (0-1) was charged with the loss in the first game of Sunday's doubleheader against the Reds. He allowed one run on three hits with no walks or strikeouts in one inning.

Impact After Detroit tied the game in the bottom of the sixth on a Nick Castellanos error, Jimenez gave the lead right back the next half inning. He is 4-for-4 in save chances on the young season, but Jimenez is worth keeping a close eye on as his velocity is down a tick and the swing-and-miss has been noticeably absent (just two swinging strikes on 17 pitches Sunday).

Moustakas and Senzel's teammate, Nick Castellanos, relayed after Tuesday's game against the Cubs that both are unable to play until Thursday due to the current protocols in place, but a favorable ruling by the league and union committee Wednesday could expedite their returns.

Castellanos has swung the bat fairly well to start the season, recording at least one hit in each of the team's five contests.

Works six strong innings Mills (1-0) allowed two earned runs on two hits and two walks while striking out three across six innings to earn the win Tuesday against the Reds.

Impact Mills worked very efficiently, requiring only 77 pitches to complete his evening of work. The only damage against him came on a two-run home run by Nick Castellanos in the fourth inning. While Mills did not generate a lot of strikeouts, he did force groundball outs, helping him limit the damage when contact was made. While Jose Quintana (thumb) continues to ramp up, Mills should stick in the Cubs' rotation. His next start is currently projected for Sunday against the Pirates.
