Daily News | Recharged after the offseason, Phillies’ Nick Castellanos works to regain his power
CLEARWATER, Fla. — Nick Castellanos’ first son, Liam, was born in August 2013. It was a busy time. Nick was a 21-year-old prospect with the Detroit Tigers, and a month away from his big league debut. But despite all of that, the Phillies right fielder still felt he had time to be a dad.
“For me, stupid things like [changing diapers] are important,” he said. “With Liam, I was able to be there more, while I’m still getting used to this new living person. Last season, everything was fast. I always felt like I was dropping the ball somewhere with Otto.”In that sense, this offseason has been a grounding one for Castellanos. He was able to drive Liam to school and to baseball practice. He was also able to get to know Otto, who is now 9 months old.
At the start of the offseason, Long reviewed some of Castellanos’ film. He noticed that the right fielder kept adding parts to his swing that he didn’t need — more bat movements, head movements, hand movements, load movements. Because he was moving more, he had less time to see the ball, and made worse choices in the strike zone.
