Trade rumors have swirled around Francisco Lindor, Kris Bryant and David Price for a while, but the recent addition of Carlos Correa is surprising.
According to Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic, the Houston Astros have considered dealing their young shortstop. While the report notes a trade is not imminent, the impending "payroll crunch" means the Astros have a tough decision to make.
Correa is a terrific player, though his trade value is complicated.
At his best, he's an All-Star contributor who hits for a decent average with good power. However, he's played more than 110 games in only one of his five seasons with the Astros.
