A new catcher

Humberto Quintero is coming back.

The story doesn’t say who will actually catch — Quintero or Brad Ausmus — while Towles recovers. You’d think Ausmus, but this might be a chance to see what the new and improved, and apparently much lighter, Quinero can do. And then if the Astros don’t want him, maybe some other team will. How many draft choices is he worth?

UPDATE: Here’s someone who might find Quintero useful.
