Correa (hamstring) said he lobbied to get the start Saturday, the Houston Chronicle's Jose de Jesus Ortiz reports.

EDGE Analysis

While Correa is out of the lineup again Saturday, it certainly sounds like he feels good enough to play, which means the team is probably just being extra cautious. Look for him to return to the lineup in the coming days. Marwin Gonzalez got the start at shortstop Saturday.

This will be the third game in a row that he has missed with hamstring soreness, and there was also an off day mixed in. Marwin Gonzalez will get the start at shortstop and hit second Saturday.

Correa is dealing with soreness in his left hamstring, Jose de Jesus Ortiz of the Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Correa was held out of the lineup Wednesday, and after a day off Thursday is once again taking a seat Friday as he deals with the ailment. It doesn't appear to be anything more than a minor issue though, so a return over the weekend remains a possibility.

Correa is not in the lineup Friday against the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

Correa also took a seat in Wednesday's contest against the Yankees, so it's a bit concerning to see the 20-year-old out of the lineup both before and after Thursday's day off. There's no word yet on any issues though so it may just be another day of rest, as Marwin Gonzalez will take over at shortstop and bat seventh.

Correa is out of the lineup Wednesday against the Yankees.

EDGE Analysis

Correa's last day off came at the beginning of July, so it's likely just a scheduled day of for the young shortstop. As a result, the Astros will turn to Marwin Gonzalez at shortstop, batting second for the club.

Correa had a big day offensively Sunday afternoon, going 3-for-4 with a two-run homer, a walk and his fifth stolen base of the season in the Astros' 5-4 loss to the Red Sox. Correa's home run -- his seventh of the season -- was especially clutch, as it tied the game in the seventh inning. The 20-year-old shortstop has lived up to his enormous hype thus far, as he's hitting .315/.339/.593 with seven home runs, 19 RBI and five steals through his first 25 big league games.

Correa was 3-for-5 with a home run, two runs scored and two RBI in the Astros' win over Boston on Friday night. The 20-year-old shortstop is the talk of the town these days. He was out of the starting lineup on Wednesday and the Astros had an off day on Thursday following 22 consecutive starts, giving him a short breather, but it didn't cool him off. He's now hitting .300 with six home runs and 17 RBI since making his major league debut on June 8, and is already generating Rookie-of-the-Year discussions.

Correa is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals. There has been nothing to suggest this is anything other than a routine day off for the 20-year-old Correa after 22 consecutive starts to begin his major league career. Marwin Gonzalez will take over at short in place of Correa, will be afforded a bit of an extended rest with the Astros not playing Thursday.

Correa was a triple short of the cycle Saturday, going 3-for-5 with a run scored, two RBI and his fifth home run in 19 games. He continues to make the majors look easy, slashing .301/.326/.566 in his first 83 at-bats. Despite the fact that his competition was given a two month head start, Correa seems intent on figuring into the AL Rookie of the Year race.

Correa hit his fourth home run in Tuesday's win over the Angels, part of a 3-for-6 night with four RBI and three runs scored. Correa is hitting a robust .308/.338/.569, and that power has been the biggest shock from the 20-year-old shortstop. He now has nine major league extra-base hits and a whopping 13 home runs and 41 extra-base hits in just 67 games across all three levels he has played at this year. Correa struck out for the 16th time in 15 games, a moderate concern, but nearly everything else has been overwhelmingly positive from the 2012 first overall pick.
