    No, I don't recognize this Correa fellow. You're saying he played for the Astros at some point?

    He plays once or twice a season when he's healthy

    He was blazing before the injury. After most thought he was done after last year.

    It was honestly his "celebration night" after the walk-off against Boston that probably led to the injury.

    Right now, if he gets back to his pre-injury level, he's probably a tad more impactful than Bregman... who seems to be pressing in RBI situations.

    What many thought is he may be done staying on the field and able to play whole seasons without injury. That has actually come to be.

    So 8 more games until Tyler White or Tony Kemp gets the axe.

    If Diaz comes back sooner and can not be pencilled at SS, Straw may stay until Correa is back and Tyler White or Tony Kemp gets axed.

    Tony is the better player. Be a shame to keep Mr. Cheeseburger solely because we lack 1B depth.

    Agreed, can’t Diaz play 1B some? If so, I say cut bait with White.

    Can we please wrap him in bubble wrap for at least a couple weeks after he comes back?

    Carlos Correa hired a massage therapist to come to his house. The Therapist pressed Correa ribs so hard, he heard a pop, and a argue happened. Carlos was so angry at the Therapist. It has to be a guy to use such force to fracture a rib.

    As we all probably know, Correa is eligible to be activated for our next game on Friday.

    What do you see as the corresponding move:

    Send down Straw?
    DFA Kemp and attempt to trade within the 7 allowed days up to the 31st deadline?

    Kemp is a lefty bat and has enough speed to pinch run. Straw is faster but not fast enough to warrant losing Kemp. Straw will be back in September.
