Victor Caratini Could Return Wednesday
Houston Astros catcher/first baseman Victor Caratini (concussion) was able to get in some running and throwing drills on Monday, and he could be activated on Wednesday, according to manager Joe Espada. Caratini was placed on the seven-day injured list on August 27 after taking a couple of foul balls off his mask, but it looks like he'll only need the minimum time on the sideline. Caratini is hitting .262 in his 95 games this season for Houston with 11 homers and 43 RBI. He has already matched his career high in homers and tied it in RBI in one of his best offensive seasons in the majors. The switch-hitter will likely be back in the mix at catcher and first base later this week, sharing time with Yainer Diaz and Christian Walker.
