Correa went 2-for-5 with two RBI and three runs scored in Thursday's 8-2 win over the Angels.

EDGE Analysis

The shortstop's first opportunity in the leadoff spot this season proved successful, and he's now hitting .282 with three homers and nine RBI through 71 at-bats in 2021. Correa has failed to record a hit in just three of his 18 starts, providing valued consistency to Houston's lineup. The 26-year-old will likely return to the middle of the order once Jose Altuve (illness) returns, but figures to continue hitting regardless of his spot in the lineup.
