Carlos Correa has returned to the Houston Astros. Correa was a beloved player during his first stint with the Astros, helping them win their first World Series.

The 2025 MLB trade deadline was one of the most active in recent memory, and while there was no true superstar-caliber player changing hands, some major trades went down ahead of the annual deadline.

One Astro that is pumped about his former teammate returning to the team is second baseman Jose Altuve, who responded to the news with a post on his Instagram story of a graphic of Correa pointing to his wrist, saying, "it's time," followed by two clock emojis.
