While last season was mostly disappointing for the Chicago Cubs, one of the few bright spots was the growth of catcher Victor Caratini. The 26-year-old from Ponce, Puerto Rico, had a very up and down first few seasons in the majors before playing in a career-high 95 games last year. It was hard to get him sufficient playing time with Willson Contreras being the star starter at catcher.
What makes Caratini a compelling case is the fact that he is relatively versatile on the infield, having already played a handful of games at first base and has also made some appearances at third.
