The Phillies released Nick Castellanos on Thursday, eating a substantial amount of money to do so. Minutes before the organization announced it was cutting ties with him, the outfielder took to social media and admitted to a story that was soon to come out in the media.
Castellanos posted a handwritten note to Instagram detailing an incident where he brought a beer into the dugout during a game against the Marlins in June. First, the note thanked the city of Philadelphia and various people associated with the Phillies for his time with the team. Then he addressed the incident.
