Scores twice
Castro went 2-for-4 with a double, a walk, an RBI and two runs scored Wednesday against the Reds.
Analyse
Castro returned to the lineup for the first time in Colorado's last four games after working through a knee injury. He did most of his damage early, walking in the first inning before coming in to score while also driving in a run with a double in the third inning. Castro now has multiple hits in each of his last three starts.

Checking back into lineup
Castro (knee) will start at second base and bat fifth in Wednesday's game against the Reds.
Analyse
Castro will move back into the starting nine for the first time since last Thursday, after a sore right knee had limited him to just one brief cameo off the bench over the Rockies' previous four games. When healthy this season, the 29-year-old has held down a near-everyday role while shuffling between all four infield spots and has posted a .664 OPS across 76 plate appearances.

Absence continuing for Game 1
Castro (knee) is out of the lineup for Game 1 of Sunday's doubleheader against the Mets.
Analyse

Sitting out Friday
Castro (knee) is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Mets.
Analyse
Castro had to exit Thursday's contest versus the Padres with right knee soreness. It appears to be a day-to-day type of injury, though it's unclear whether he'll be available off the bench Friday. Tyler Freeman is occupying second base and hitting cleanup for Colorado.
