35-year old righty reliever Pat Neshek of the Houston Astros has been outstanding this year. Neshek has pitched in 49 games (0 starts) for the Astros so far this year and he is 2-2 with a 2.52 ERA and a 0.81 WHIP. He has given up 24 hits and 8 walks while whiffing 35 batters in his first 39 1/3 innings for the Astros so far this year. Righty batters are only 15 of 100 (.150 avg, .419 OPS) with 2 homers and 25 whiffs against Neshek. The Astros hope that Neshek keeps dominating those right handed hitters, as he is turning more into a specialist as he gets older.
