The wife of the Philadelphia Phillies star reveals that he is no longer represented by the super agent

There’s a mystery with the Philadelphia Phillies, as star outfielder Nick Castellanos has reportedly left super agent Scott Boras ahead of an offseason where he’s not looking for a new contract.

On Tuesday afternoon, a Phillies fan account known as Phillies Tailgate on X posted a list of the eight team names that are represented by Boras, apparently referencing the fact that the impending free agent superstar Juan Soto is also represented by Boras and the connection. could get Soto to play in Philadelphia.

With Castellanos on the roster and known to have been represented by Boras when he signed a 5-year, $100 million contract with the Phillies before the 2022 season, nothing seemed out of the question. That is, until Jess Castellanos, Nick’s wife, responded to the tweet and said “*no Nick,” implying that the star outfielder is no longer represented by the biggest name in player representation.

No reasoning has been revealed at this time as to why Castellanos would have parted ways with Boras, but it’s a fascinating story as no new agent hires have been announced and he could simply represent himself moving forward . Some have speculated this offseason that the team might try to trade the fan-favorite outfielder for a blockbuster deal, but that seems unlikely after a season in which he played in all 162 games and remains a staple of the alignment Even if that were the case, Boras probably wouldn’t factor in at all with two full seasons left until Castellanos hits free agency.

In the three years since arriving in Philadelphia, Castellanos has hit 65 home runs and 254 RBIs. He has become one of the team’s most important players and helped them tremendously in their run to the 2022 World Series and the 2023 NLCS, even providing seven hits with a .412 batting average in the four games lost to the New York Mets on the season. NLDS this postseason.

As the team prepares to move forward in the offseason, it appears that any potential future negotiations with Castellanos will no longer go through Boras.
