It just completely snapped on me and then I fell to the ground and couldn\u2019t put weight on it.\u201d<\/p><\/div><div><p>Correa was on crutches and in a walking boot Wednesday morning at the ballpark after seeing a foot specialist. He said he would seek some other opinions before scheduling the surgery.<\/p><\/div><div><p>Correa, 31, said the injury was a complete tear and his recovery is expected to take six to eight months.<\/p><\/div><div><p>\u201cTough, really tough,\u201d he said. \u201cNot what I was expecting, but now it\u2019s time to deal with it, face it head on and and focus on the rehab.\u201d<\/p><\/div><div><\/div><div><p>Correa has had ankle problems in the past. In 2023, he had huge free agent deals with the San Francisco Giants and New York Mets fall through over concerns with his right ankle that was operated on in 2014. He ended up remaining with the Minnesota Twins after the deals collapsed.<\/p><\/div><div><p>Correa has salaries of $31.5 million this season, $30.5 million in 2027 and $30 million in 2028. As part of the last July&#8217;s trade, the Twins will pay the Astros $10 million each Dec. 15 from this year through 2028.<\/p><\/div><div><p>His latest injury is yet another blow to an Astros team that has dealt with scores of injuries this season, including an oblique injury to Yainer Diaz that landed the catcher on the injured list Tuesday.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/sanfranciscomovingguide.com\/?p=51\">Rays beat Blue Jays 3-0 to complete a 3-game sweep<\/a><\/p><\/div><div><p>Correa, who is back with the Astros after last summer\u2019s blockbuster trade from the Twins, played third base for Houston last season with Jeremy Pe\u00f1a at shortstop. But Correa has been playing shortstop recently with Pe\u00f1a out with a hamstring injury.<\/p><\/div><div><\/div><div><p>Manager Joe Espada said this week that Pe\u00f1a is close to a return and could begin a rehabilitation assignment soon.<\/p><\/div><div><p>But it&#8217;s still a huge blow to lose Correa, who is one of the leaders of the team.<\/p><\/div><div><p>\u201cIt\u2019s a gut punch,\u201d general manager Dana Brown said. \u201cBut it\u2019s not the end of the world. We still have a very competitive team. Thank God we have the depth still in the infield particularly when Jeremy comes back. And so, the team is still built to win, no doubt about it.&#8221;<\/p><\/div><div><p>Espada said the Astros will miss all that Correa brings to the team.<\/p><\/div><div><\/div><div><p>\u201cIt\u2019s just really hard,\u201d Espada said. \u201cTalking to Carlos this morning it was really, really hard.
