Minnesota Twins starting catcher Jason Castro will miss the remainder of the 2018 season. The timeline for Castro’s return from his knee injury was four-six weeks. However, there is more damage than anticipated in his knee and Castro required a full meniscus repair.
This is a huge blow for the Twins. Catcher is one of thinnest positions throughout their Minor League system. Minnesota will need somebody to step up their game and help fill the void Castro has left behind.
The internal option
Mitch Garver will benefit the most from Castro missing this much time.
