Carlos Correa’s season is over — and it’s a gut punch for the Astros, who reacquired him last year hoping he’d be their playoff catalyst. After battling lingering ankle soreness that wouldn’t budge despite rehab efforts, the 31-year All-Star shut it down to prioritize long-term health ahead of 2027. But here’s the twist: the Astros are actually playing their best ball without him. Since Correa’s last game in early May, they’ve surged to 62-53 while holding the AL West lead. Jeremy Peña’s nearing another 20-homer season, Isaac Paredes has been unstoppable lately, and even utility man Nick Allen is having a career year. The team’s depth has stepped up big time — and now they’ll have to keep doing just that without their star shortstop.
