Astros general manager Jeff Luhnow acknowledged Monday that Correa will likely reach Triple-A Fresno this month, Evan Drellich of the Houston Chronicle reports. The anticipated promotion is obvious considering how well Correa has been hitting. Through 24 games for Double-A Corpus Christi, the 20-year-old shortstop is hitting .398/.468/.735 with six home runs, 28 RBI and 13 stolen bases. Luhnow said he wants Correa to face Texas League pitching more than once, however, to see how he fares against presumably modified game plans. While many would argue that the reigning Texas League Player of the Week could help Houston now with Jed Lowrie (thumb) sidelined through the All-Star break, Luhnow will stick with Marwin Gonzalez at Jonathan Villar for the time being. "If we don't feel like we're getting the production out of that spot, out of that position on the infield and (Jed) Lowrie's still a ways away and we feel like Carlos gives us the best chance to win games," Luhnow said, "that's a scenario that leads to him potentially being here sooner than anticipated."
