Astros' Carlos Correa: Leads offense in Monday's loss
Correa went 3-for-4 in Monday's 6-0 loss to the Mariners.
Analysis:
Correa stood apart from the rest of the offense, which managed just four hits (three singles and a double) in seven innings against Seattle starter James Paxton. The shortstop is emerging from a chilly start, banging out five hits -- albeit all singles -- over the last two games. Unfortunately, the Astros are lower half in average (.232, 18th), OBP (.306, 20th) and slugging (.380, 20th). Nobody's getting on base for Correa to knock in, and he's not hitting the ball with authority yet.
