The Houston Astros decided to bring back a familiar face in Carlos Correa on Thursday before MLB’s trade deadline. Houston’s decision to reunite with the veteran infielder is earning praise from MLB Network’s Steve Phillips.

Correa signed a six-year, $200 million contract with the Minnesota Twins before the 2023 season began. He was part of the Twins' first playoff series win in 21 years, and an obvious leader in the clubhouse. But with the team in fire sale mode, it suddenly made sense for him to return to his old stomping ground.
