Correa was placed on the 10-day DL on Tuesday with a torn ligament in his left thumb and is expected to miss 6-to-8 weeks.

EDGE Analysis

This is a huge blow, as the earliest Correa will be able to return is September, and Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports reports that he might need surgery, but nothing has been determined yet on that front. The Astros are saying publicly that they expect Correa to return for the stretch run. Colin Moran was recalled from Triple-A Fresno to take his place on the active roster, and now Marwin Gonzalez and Alex Bregman will be tasked with handling the shortstop workload while Correa is out.

Correa will be re-evaluated Tuesday after leaving Monday's game with what was then described as a hammed left thumb, Jake Kaplan of the Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Correa appeared to aggravate a thumb injury first sustained July 4 in Atlanta on a headfirst slide into home plate. The young shortstop was hoping the pain he felt that night against the Braves would go away over the All-Star break, but the pain lingered. Expect the Astros to proceed with caution. Marwin Gonzalez is the most likely fill-in shortstop should Correa be forced to miss some time.

Correa left Monday's game with a jammed left thumb.

EDGE Analysis

Correa exited in the bottom of the fourth inning and will be re-evaluated Tuesday. The 22-year-old looks as though he has avoided serious injury, but it would not be surprising if the Astros are extra cautious with their young shortstop. Correa missed one game with a similar injury just before the All-Star break, but it remains to be seen if this stems from the same injury.

Correa exited Monday's game against the Mariners with an apparent left hand/wrist injury, Jake Kaplan of the Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Correa appeared to be in immediate pain after taking a swing in the bottom of the fourth inning. The star shortstop was attended to by the team's trainer and was subsequently removed from the game. An update on his condition should become available shortly.

Correa is out of the lineup Sunday against the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

Manager A.J. Hinch is just building in a day of rest for the budding superstar, who recorded one hit in seven at-bats and walked three times in the first two games of the series. Marwin Gonzalez will man shortstop in place of Correa on Sunday.

Correa went 2-for-5 with a double and a two-run homer Friday against the Blue Jays.

EDGE Analysis

Correa crushed his 18th homer of the season to start the scoring for the Astros on a night in which they destroyed Aaron Sanchez. He's had a true breakout as an elite performer in his third season, as he's slashing .320/.397/.560.

Correa (thumb) is back in the lineup Thursday against the Blue Jays, batting third and playing shortstop.

EDGE Analysis

The All-Star shortstop ultimately missed just one game due to the thumb ailment that knocked him out of Tuesday's contest prematurely. He'll resume his normal role in the Astros lineup as he looks to build upon his stellar .320/.397/.553 batting line.

Correa (thumb) will be available off the bench Wednesday, Jake Kaplan of the Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Manager A.J. Hinch said the Astros were exercising precaution by having Correa sit out Wednesday, one day after the All-Star shortstop jammed his left thumb into a catcher's shin guard. "He's doing fine," Hinch said. "He arguably should play, but he's not." This news bodes well for Correa's availability Thursday.

Correa (thumb) is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the Braves, Jake Kaplan of the Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Correa left Tuesday's game after injuring himself on a headfirst slide into home plate, and is currently dealing with a left thumb injury. Although the shortstop received clean test results from the X-rays, the team will give him the day off while Marwin Gonzalez draws the start in his stead. He should be considered day-to-day and could return to the lineup for Thursday's series opener in Toronto.

Correa (thumb) announced Tuesday that his injured thumb is "a little sore" but that he hopes to play Wednesday, Jake Kaplan of the Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Correa's thumb injuring is proving to be a minor ailment as the young shortstop is hopeful to not miss any time at all. We'll have to wait and see if manager A.J. Hinch inserts Correa into the starting lineup Wednesday or if he opts to give him a day of rest.
