Astros SS Carlos Correa Heading to Disabled List With Stiff Back

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Houston Astros shortstop Carlos Correa is heading to the 10-day disabled list because of a stiff back.

Correa sat out games on Tuesday and Wednesday, and wasn’t in the lineup Thursday night at Tampa Bay. The Astros say he’ll be put on the DL on Friday.

“He feels better, but we just need to do the right thing and get him completely symptom-free and not sore,” manager A.J. Hinch said. “He’s not going to be available, so we’ll move forward and hopefully this is just 10 days and he’ll be activated by next weekend.
