After taking a trip to the World Series last season, the Philadelphia Phillies clinched a playoff berth on Tuesday evening.
Earning a postseason appearance warranted some time for reflection. After all, the MLB season is long and comes with all sorts of lessons for those on and off the field.
But don’t ask Phillies outfielder Nick Castellanos to look back at the year that was in Philadelphia. When asked what he learned during this past season as a ballplayer or as a person, the two-time MLB All-Star didn’t offer much in the enthusiasm department.

Good for you, Castellanos.
The 31-year-old outfielder is not shy about telling reporters (or folks on TV) when he thinks they have asked a stupid question.
He continued to have that same attitude with reporters even during the jovial celebration for the Phillies.
