The big splash for the Astros on Thursday was a move to reacquire Carlos Correa from the Minnesota Twins. The two-time All-Star waived his no-trade clause to return to Houston, where he will move from shortstop to third base to replace injured Isaac Paredes. They also added outfielder Jesús Sánchez from the Miami Marlins for reliever Ryan Gusto and picked up utility infielder Ramón Urías from the Baltimore Orioles.

Meanwhile, Boston acquired right-handed starter Dustin May from the Los Angeles Dodgers and left-handed reliever Steven Matz from the St. Louis Cardinals. The Sox were rebuffed in talks with the Twins for right-handed starter Joe Ryan. The Red Sox return home after taking two of three at Minnesota.

Boston had not named a starter for Friday while the Astros are set with All-Star right-hander Hunter Brown (9-5), who has a 2.54 ERA and 1.00 WHIP in 21 starts and 124 innings with 149 strikeouts. Brown comes in having lost his last two decisions.
