Rest-of-Season Projections
Towles signed a minor league contract with the Rangers, Jon Heyman of CBS Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
Towles was last with a team in 2013, but appears to have latched on in the Rangers' organization following the trade of Geovany Soto to the Athletics on Sunday. He will provide the Rangers with some depth at the position, but is likely not a threat to crack the big league roster this season.

Towles will likely be the starting catcher at Triple-A Rochester, but there's some upside for him getting playing time in Minnesota. If Joe Mauer's injury woes continue to limit his time behind the plate, Towles could get into the mix since Drew Butera is a weak hitter and Ryan Doumit isn't strong with the glove. There's also a chance he beats out Butera for the third catcher role with the Twins to start the season.
