Caratini is listed among No. 21 wearers for Clemente Day, tying his Puerto Rican heritage into the Astros’ tribute roster.

Caratini walked on four pitches and was part of Houston’s patient approach. His plate discipline and occasional power make him a streaming option and roster depth piece in deeper leagues, particularly when the Astros are hitting.

Caratini initiated Houston's ninth-inning push with a single that began the rally in which Trammell's double followed. His contact-driven at-bats like this one contribute to Houston's late-game offense and fantasy relevance, especially in daily formats that value late scoring opportunities and lineup depth.

Caratini returns from concussion IL and anchors the Houston catching corps, likely sharing duties with Salazar while remaining cleared to catch. His presence preserves a steady defensive backstop for a pitching staff that benefits from his handling and game-calling, with occasional at-bats to contribute in the heart of the Astros’ order.

Caratini’s baserunning and concussion IL status put him on track for activation, offering a catcher option who can contribute in rallies and provide defensive value. His return would impact Houston’s catching rotation and potential split time with Maldonado in fantasy lineups.
