I also saw the pads were sending some cash our way as well.

While I would have liked to have seen what Feliciano could do with some part-time at bats, I'm good with this move.  Backup catcher shouldn't amount to more than 1/2 a win to a win over 80 games, one way or the other. Caratini is pretty much the definition of a mid-tier, average back up catcher.  For all the hand wringing over Severino's suspension caused, backup catcher who's going to start 22 - 30 games for half a season just isn't going to impact enough AB's/plays/games to make enough of a difference in the W/L column.  

I think it's more likely a platoon at catcher.
