The Astros re-signed veteran catcher Brad Ausmus to a one-year, $2 million contract today that includes incentive bonuses.
Ausmus, 38, hit .235 (83-for-349) with three home runs, 17 doubles and 25 RBIs in 117 games with the Astros this year. He is the franchise’s all-time leader in both games (1,166) and starts (1,057) at catcher and leads the majors in games played, assists and total chances at the position since 1995.

I have no problem at all with this move. It will be good for Towles development.

I know it's unrealistic to think Towles will continue hitting at the torrid pace he set in September, but I was impressed by how impressed management & Ausmus was with his maturity as a catcher. I don't remember hearing that about any of our other catching "prospects".
