Astros' Carlos Correa says sore side 'nothing major' after MRI

Houston Astros shortstop Carlos Correa says tests on his sore side came back clean Thursday and that he's day-to-day.

Correa felt what he called "right side discomfort" in his last at-bat against the Mariners on Wednesday in the Astros' 7-5 win.

Correa was examined in Houston before joining the team before a game at the Texas Rangers. The shortstop wasn't in the lineup Thursday night, and Correa said he got "really good news."

"Nothing major, and we're going to take it day-to-day," Correa told reporters.

Manager A.J. Hinch said the Astros would be conservative with him and know more when Correa swings a bat again in the next day or so.

"Just happy the first diagnosis is that it's nothing serious, and that hopefully we'll get him back soon,'' Hinch said.
