    What exactly is your definition for "struggling"? You know his OPS is at .926 right?

    I'm glad they're keeping him out. If there's even a hint of stiffness, keep him out.

    As long as he can go in the playoffs that's all that matters.

    The post you responded to was from Oct 2018, when Correa was a mess at the plate.

    Chris Paul thinks this guy is injury prone.

    I don't think Carlos needs to play the rest of the way, but I would still give him the last game of the season to work out the rust. As far as adding Toro just as a safety valve and backup, not necessary given our roster, but if we want a good luck charm Toro still qualifies.

    I think he'll never be the same again, but his recent 2-HR game increases my hope.

    Not being a hater, but man, 75 games this season. Less than his (incomplete) rookie season of 99. These injury issues really concern me. Still haven't forgotten his massage story either. This needs to be his walk-up song LOL

    Dude...... that post is almost a year old. It's in reference to his struggles down the stretch last year.

    Not good. I'm not going to slam him or trash the guy. Sucks to have a 25 year old with back issues.

    The back injury has nothing to do with the broken rib. Unfortunately it appears he's got some chronic back issues.

    I feel so bad for Carlos. He obviously wants to be out there playing and just gets slandered constantly for his injuries. He looked great a week or so ago...I'm hopeful this is just us playing it ultra safe for the upcoming month of grueling competition.
