The last two years, he pitched in Houston where his catcher was Jason Castro. He thinks that Castro is underrated and will be helpful for the Twins. “He was awesome,” Neshek said. “He knew all the hitters, which removed the guesswork for us. With the guys they have there in Minnesota, I think he’s the guy they need. I loved throwing to him.” Trying new things and trusting his framing also are important to Castro, according to the side-winding righty from Minnesota. “You get to a point where you trust him and you try different things,” he said. “He got me to try that slider to lefties because he would frame it and get that outside spot. It became a pitch that I could use.” Lots of good quotes from Neshek in this article.
