Astros' Carlos Correa: Returns to lineup Sunday

Correa (illness) will play shortstop and bat in the cleanup spot in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Nationals, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

Analysis:

The Astros held Correa out Saturday while he battled flu-like symptoms, but one day off was all he needed to make a full recovery. Correa, who has been away from the Astros for much of March while playing for Puerto Rico in the World Baseball Classic, shapes up as a solid early-round selection in drafts after hitting .274 with 20 homers, 96 RBI and 13 steals in 2016.
