CLEARWATER, Fla. — This would be a good time for Nick Castellanos to start earning that $100 million.
Rhys Hoskins ripped a two-out RBI single past the third baseman and drove in Kyle Schwarber with the first run against the Detroit Tigers on Thursday. It was one more glorious moment in a spectacular spring for a player in a contract year, on the cusp of cashing in on his prodigious talents.
Five pitches later, Castellanos struck out, feebly and unremarkably.
