The MLB trade deadline saw the Minnesota Twins trade Carlos Correa to the Houston Astros, but trade talks did not start out well.

Astros Dealt Bad News on $200 Million Star at MLB Trade Deadline originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Houston Astros had been linked to Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa in ongoing MLB trade rumors.
