The Astros have claimed Craig Tatum from Baltimore, according to MLBTR.
In eight seasons in the minors, Tatum has posted a .249/.316/.377 line. He's managed 299 PAs in the Majors, with a .223/.291/.264 line.
I. Don't. Understand. Ultimately, it doesn't change that Castro and Quintero are your C1/C2, but...seriously?

Corporan is horrible. They'd already cut the horrible Towles loose. Makes sense to have another catcher around. This guy was Wieters' backup this year, he must be at least slightly better than horrible.
And, what does it cost them, the minimum salary?
Organizational depth guy. When Brian Epstein is a Sept. callup, you know there's not much in the minor league loop. Tatum will be at Okla. City and could be in Houston if Castro can't make the call physically.
Make that Brian Esposito. Sorry.
Snyder would have been a nice pick up, but probably too expensive for where we're at.
