With the MLB trade deadline less than 12 hours away, the Houston Astros are expected to be active in the trade market. After landing Ramon Urias from the Baltimore Orioles late Wednesday night, the Astros are now eyeing some left-handed-hitting outfield options.

Correa is a 3-time All-Star, former Rookie of the Year and member of the Astros team who won the 2017 World Series. Now, it appears Houston’s trade talks with Minnesota for Correa “are all but dead,” per USA Today’s Bob Nightengale.

HOUSTON — With less than 24 hours until the trade deadline, the Houston Astros have reportedly made a deal. According to MLB.com citing sources, the team traded for third baseman Ramón Urías from the Baltimore Orioles. In exchange, Houston is sending minor league pitcher Twine Palmore to Baltimore.

Carlos Correa says discussions about a trade from Minnesota back to Houston before Thursday's trade deadline aren't serious,"but he didn't rule out the possibility of returning to the city where he won a World Series.

Crane has long remained a fan of Correa, to whom he offered a five-year, $160 million contract after the 2021 season. After Correa rejected it and signed with the Twins, Crane took the rare step of issuing a statement thanking Correa and his wife, Daniella, for their contributions to the city and franchise.
