Cubs' Carlos Corporan: Returns to minors
Carlos Corporan was reassigned to minor-league camp Wednesday, Mark Gonzales of the Chicago Tribune reports.The veteran backstop faced an uphill climb to a roster spot given the presence of Willson Contreras, Miguel Montero and Kyle Schwarber, but Corporan's .200 batting average in 20 spring at-bats ultimately sealed his fate. The 33-year-old should be nothing more than an organizational depth piece this season.

Marlins' Carlos Corporan: Signs minor league contract with Marlins on Wednesday
Carlos Corporan signed a minor league contract with the Miami Marlins on Wednesday, Chris Cotillo of SB Nation reports.Corporan was released by the Rays on Friday, but it didn't take long for another club to seek out his services behind the plate. The 32-year-old was a bit lackluster at the plate with the Rays' Triple-A affiliate, batting just .200 with two home runs and nine RBI in 65 at-bats, so he'll likely just act as organizational depth going forward if he can't improve his dreary numbers at the plate.

He could be sent down to the minor leagues to provide organizational depth at catcher.

Yankees' Carlos Corporan: Signs minor league contract with Yankees on Tuesday
Carlos Corporan signed a minor league contract with the New York Yankees on Tuesday that will likely include an invitation to spring training, Chris Cotillo of SB Nation reports.Corporan spent 2015 as the Rangers' backup catcher, but had his season ended in mid-July with a thumb injury after hitting a mere .178 with three home runs and 15 RBI. He'll likely just add some depth at catcher in the organization with Brian McCann slated as the starter for now and prospect Gary Sanchez possibly coming to the majors soon.

The 31-year-old registered 107 at-bats with the Texas Rangers this season, but he was incredibly inefficient at the plate, recording a .178/.244/.299 slash line to go along with three home runs (second lowest total when recording 100+ at-bats in his career).
