Notably, Carlos has spent his entire MLB career with Houston Astros, having even clinched the 2017 World Series title with the franchise. However, the Dodgers have lost their star shortstop, Corey Seager, to the Texas Rangers in free agency, and hence, might go above and beyond to not miss out on Carlos now.
Astros star wants Carlos Correa on the team
The Houston Astros wouldn’t want to lose their extraordinary player, especially after his stellar run in World Series. Notably, Astros star, Lance McCullers Jr is optimistic about Correa’s comeback.

While, the possible explanation for the Yankees not making any signings yet, is that their priority is to ‘save money’ for Aaron Judge’s upcoming extension. As for Carlos’ deal, his future now will only be decided once the lockout is lifted.
What do you think, LA Dodgers or Houston Astros, where will Carlos play next season?
