Conger is dealing with a bothersome left wrist; however, the injury is considered minor and he could catch in Grapefruit League games this weekend, Evan Drellich of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis:
Conger, who was acquired by the Astros via trade in November, is expected to serve as the team's No. 2 catcher behind Jason Castro this season. However, if Castro's offensive struggles from 2014 carry over into this season, we could see more of an even split behind the plate.
