Carlos Correa rips Cody Bellinger, defends Jose Altuve in explosive interview

It didn’t take long for Houston Astros shortstop Carlos Correa to go from contrite to defensive. Just days after Correa spoke thoughtfully about the Astros’ sign-stealing scandal, he reversed course and fired back at one of the Astros’ most outspoken critics.

Correa ripped Los Angeles Dodgers slugger Cody Bellinger, defended Jose Altuve and revealed even more about the Astros’ sign-stealing scheme in an interview that will appear on MLB Network on Saturday night. Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic previewed a portion of that interview early Saturday, which contains a number or bizarre and revealing quotes from Correa.
