Correa (elbow) will start at shortstop and bat fifth Sunday against the Cardinals, Jake Kaplan of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
In his second game back from a rib injury that sidelined him for two months, Correa busted out with a base hit and his first career grand slam before exiting in the ninth inning, when he was spiked in the right elbow. Correa downplayed the issue after the game and will be cleared to start the series finale, with the treatment he received for the laceration apparently having taken care of the matter.

Correa went 2-for-5 with a home run and five RBI in Saturday's 8-2 win over the Cardinals. He exited in the ninth inning after being spiked in the right elbow on a slide but expects to play in Sunday's series finale, Jake Kaplan of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
After singling in a run in the first inning, the shortstop drove a Michael Wacha fastball over the right-field fence in the third for his first career grand slam. Correa wasted little time getting back into a groove, launching his 12th homer of the year in his second game back from a two-month absence, and on the season he's now slashing .293/.356/.551. The 24-year-old was the recipient of a poor slide during the eighth inning and briefly dealt with some numbness to prompt his exit, but he said after the game that he has no further issues.

Correa went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in Friday's loss to the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
Correa was activated off the 60-day injured list Friday and played for the first time since May 26. Prior to suffering a rib injury, Correa was putting up strong numbers (.907 OPS, 11 home runs) in 50 games, indicating he was back on track after a disappointing and injury-impacted 2018.

Correa (rib) was activated from the 60-day injured list Friday, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports. He is starting at shortstop and hitting fifth against the Cardinals, per Rome.
EDGE Analysis
As expected, Correa will rejoin the Astros ahead of Friday's series opener after spending the past two months on the shelf with a cracked rib. The shortstop completed a six-game rehab stint before being activated, slashing .333/.417/.476 with three doubles in those contests. Correa will look to pick up where he left off prior to the injury, as he compiled a .295/.360/.547 triple slash with 11 homers in 50 games before landing on the shelf. Tony Kemp was designated for assignment to free up a roster spot for Correa.

Correa (rib) is expected to return to the lineup Friday against the Cardinals, Hunter Atkins of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
The only thing that would prevent Correa from returning is if he were to develop complications from his rehab appearance Wednesday. He went 1-for-2 with two walks and a run scored for Triple-A Round Rock and appears ready to go Friday, the first day he is eligible to be activated off the 60-day injured list.
