It's more happy coincidence than anything else, but the symmetry is sweet all the same. Carlos Correa joins the Astros on the very same day that Major League clubs look to land the next great batch of prospects in the first round of the MLB Draft, and the game's youth movement pushes onward.
The 20-year-old Correa was the first pick in the first round of the 2012 Draft, and in relatively short order -- even in the face of fibula surgery last summer -- he's made good on that 1-1 status with a rise up the ranks to potentially serve as a shortstop sparkplug for a first-place Astros squad.
