With Riley Greene (foot) and Derek Hill (hamstring) both out to begin the regular season, Castro may see more playing time in the outfield, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
Castro seemed in danger of being left off the roster entirely a few days ago, but the injuries have changed things in the Detroit outfield. Victor Reyes will likely be the starter in center field, with Akil Baddoo and Robbie Grossman in the corners. That'll leave Castro and Eric Haase as outfield depth options. This certainly is a boost to Castro's fantasy outlook in the short term, though he still may not play enough to really be on the map.
