Correa has registered three hits in 12 at-bats since his return to Houston. He hit his first home run for the Astros during Houston's 6-1 loss to the Red Sox on Sunday. The Astros were swept at Fenway Park. Correa is expected to be their everyday third basemen, but he's also played some shortstop because of an injury to Jeremy Peña.

Less than halfway through his six-year, $200 million contract — amid an epic sell-off at the trade deadline on Thursday — the Twins dealt Correa, one of the leaders in their clubhouse, back to the Houston Astros, where he began his career, the biggest move on a dark day for the organization.

Carlos Correa is returning to Houston. The Astros reacquired the three-time All-Star shortstop from the Minnesota Twins just before Thursday’s trade deadline.
