MLB Trade Deadline Shocker: Astros Land Carlos Correa in Blockbuster Move, Padres Shake Up Lineup with Multiple Surprises
Minnesota is also sending $33 million to offset the $103.4 million left on Correa’s contract, which runs through 2028. The Twins will receive minor league pitcher Matt Mikulski in return.
Correa has exclusively played shortstop in his 11-year MLB career but will almost certainly move to third base with shortstop Jeremy Peña close to returning from the injured list. The Astros need help at the hot corner with All-Star Isaac Paredes out indefinitely with a hamstring injury.
The 30-year-old Correa has had a down season by his standards, batting .267 with seven homers and 31 RBIs. He’s under contract through 2028.
