Correa exited Saturday's game in the ninth inning after being hit on the hand by a pitch, Jake Kaplan of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
The young shortstop was 0-for-3 with two strikeouts heading into his final at-bat when a Frankie Montas fastball went awry and caught Correa on the hand. It's unclear whether this is just a precautionary measure or if it is a more serious issue, but the situation should be clarified once he is examined by team doctors.

Correa went 3-for-4 in Monday's 6-0 loss to the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
Correa stood apart from the rest of the offense which managed just four hits (three singles, one double) in seven innings against Seattle starter James Paxton. The shortstop is emerging from a chilly start, banging out five hits, albeit all singles, over the last two games. Unfortunately, the Astros are lower half in batting (.232, 18th), on base percentage (.306, 20th) and slugging (.380, 20th). Nobody's getting on base for Correa to knock in, and he's not hitting with authority.

Correa went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and two RBI in Houston's 3-0 win over the Mariners on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Correa has provided decent speed and power from the shortstop position in his first two seasons, but at age 22, fantasy owners are expecting much more. He should be a safe early-round pick with tons of upside. Correa is right there with Corey Seager of the Dodgers in terms of most exciting and talented young shortstops in the game.

Correa (illness) will play shortstop and bat in the cleanup spot in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Nationals, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Astros held Correa out Saturday while he battled flu-like symptoms, but one day off was all he needed to make a full recovery. Correa, who has been away from the Astros for much of March while playing for Puerto Rico in the World Baseball Classic, shapes up as a solid early-round selection in drafts after hitting .274 with 20 homers, 96 RBI and 13 steals in 2016.

Correa will be out of action Saturday due to flu-like symptoms, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Correa returned to Grapefruit League play Friday after blasting three home runs for Puerto Rico in the World Baseball Classic. He'll be looking to build off a steady 2016 campaign in which he slashed .274/.361/.451 and knocked in 96 RBI. Consider him day-to-day until his symptoms subside.

Correa is scheduled to rejoin the Astros' spring training lineup Saturday after returning from the World Baseball Classic, Jake Kaplan of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Correa sizzled in WBC play for Puerto Rico, going 8-for-20 with three home runs and nine RBI. Getting some work in Grapefruit League action will affirm his value as a borderline first-round pick in many mixed fantasy leagues.

Correa went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and two runs scored in Puerto Rico's 4-3 extra-inning win over the Netherlands at Dodger Stadium in Monday's semi-final game in the World Baseball Classic, Manny Randhawa of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 441-foot homer, which was measured as the ninth-longest in Dodger Stadium in the Statcast era, tied the game after the Netherlands took an early 2-0 lead. He also scored the game's winning run. Correa, a shortstop by trade, flashed his defense, too, making a key stop at third base. For the tournament, the Astros' young star has been a key cog in the Puerto Rico lineup, hitting .400 (8-for-20) with three homers and nine RBI.

Correa went went 1-for-3 with a walk in Sunday's game against the Braves.
EDGE Analysis
Houston's projected starting shortstop was delayed at the onset of camp after having his wisdom teeth removed, but is at full strength now. He'll sit out Monday's game before playing the next two. After that, Correa's off to the World Baseball Classic to compete for Team Puerto Rico.

Correa fully participated in Wednesday's workout after being cleared for all activities, Jake Kaplan of The Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Correa had been limited in workouts after having his wisdom teeth removed last week, but manager A.J. Hinch says the slugger is "a full go." Expect the young shortstop to be ready for the Astros' first Grapefruit League game on Saturday.

Correa (teeth) logged a workout Tuesday and was able to take about 50 swings in the batting cage, MLB.com's Brian McTaggart reports.
EDGE Analysis
Correa's start to spring training was delayed after he had his wisdom teeth removed last week, but his activity Tuesday suggests any lingering pain in his mouth is no longer an issue. The shortstop should soon resume doing the same workouts as the rest of his teammates and doesn't look to be in any danger of missing the beginning of Grapefruit League play.
