Jose Altuve, Yordan Alvarez and Framber Valdez are among those who have remained with the Astros since he departed.

Correa was at third and batting cleanup. He had played 1,186 games at shortstop in his major league career, and none at third base; he did play some third base for Puerto Rico during the World Baseball Classic.

The Astros have a stellar shortstop in All-Star Jeremy Pena, so Correa has agreed to play third base. He was at the position against Boston on Friday and batting in the cleanup spot.
