We couldn’t believe that Nick Castellanos favorite superhero was who it was because, sorry, we don’t think he’s actually a superhero. Or is he? We had to discuss on The Andie Summers Show of course.

Nick Castellanos Favorite Superhero

I mean, there are so many to choose from but we are shocked that the Phillies All Star would choose this character. He could’ve gone Marvel, he could’ve gone DC, but he chose a different route.

He Picked Scooby-Doo

That’s right, the legendary mystery solver himself was the choice of the Phillies right-fielder.

And he defended his choice

He wasn’t backing down when a local reporter for KTVZ in Oregon asked him a bit more.

His reasoning makes sense

I guess we never really thought it out. He is a dog that can talk, so that alone is very impressive. Plus, he can solve mysteries so that’s pretty sweet too. What do you think? Would you say that he is a superhero? You can vote in my poll below!

All Star Week Representing The Phillies

Nick Castellanos is part of All Star Week in Seattle along with Craig Kimbrel. They are representing the Philadelphia Phillies this week along with Manager Rob Thomson and the coaching staff. The winners of both the AL and NL Pennant from the previous season end up coaching the next year’s All Star Game. So even our coaches are keeping busy!

You can watch the All Star Game from Seattle at 8pm EST on FOX on Tuesday, July 11th. Make sure to look out for Castellanos and Kimbrel!
