What if Nick Castellanos can become the next J.D. Martinez?

Nick Castellanos appears to be emulating J.D. Martinez's approach at the plate, and his breakout July is a good sign of things to come.

Nick Castellanos is having a pretty disappointing sophomore year, so much so that most Tiger fans wanted him traded earlier in the season, or at the very least sent back to Triple-A Toledo. But what if he can become the next breakout Tiger like J.D. Martinez? What if there are early signs that he already is?

Nick is currently hitting .242/.291/.395 in 368 plate appearances so far in 2015.
