That, of course, was the return of Nick Castellanos to the lineup after he’d been on the injured list with a broken wrist, the result of being hit by a pitch.
Today, they backed it up with another return of a $64 million man, only this time it’s one that took a lot, lot longer to materialize. As the Reds themselves announced on Twitter, Mike Moustakas has officially been activated off the 60-day IL, and is back.
