One of the biggest free agents on the market this offseason may end up going back to the only Major League Baseball he has ever known.
Houston Astros owner Jim Crane said of Carlos Correa, "Our team has reached out to his agent," per Mark Berman of Fox 26 in Houston. "We're in discussions."
His comments come after the Chicago Cubs were previously linked to Correa as a potential destination.
MLB.com's Jon Paul Morosi reported the National League Central team was "poised to play a major role in the courtship of Correa" and highlighted the fact it was "among the teams that had the heaviest dialogue" with his camp prior to the league-initiated lockout.
