Astros' Kenedy Corona: Heading to minors
The Astros optioned Corona to minor-league camp Tuesday, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Corona has yet to make his MLB debut and struggled to the tune of a .213/.314/.289 slash line over 396 plate appearances between Double-A Corpus Christi and Triple-A Sugar Land in 2024, so he never seemed to have much of a case for a spot on Houston's Opening Day roster. The speedy 24-year-old will play regularly in the minors to begin the season and could join Houston at some point later in 2025 if the big club's outfield depth is tested.

Astros' Kenedy Corona: Dispatched to minor-league camp
The Astros optioned Corona to minor-league camp Monday, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Corona reached base seven times in 15 plate appearances this spring, but he never had a real shot to crack the Opening Day roster. The 23-year-old reached the Double-A level in 2023 but could begin 2024 at Triple-A Sugar Land.

Astros' Kenedy Corona: Added to 40-man roster
The Astros selected Corona to their 40-man roster Tuesday.
Corona, 23, slashed .251/.331/.458 with 22 home runs and 32 stolen bases over 117 games this past season between High-A Asheville and Double-A Corpus Christi. He is now protected from the upcoming Rule 5 Draft.

Astros' Kenedy Corona: Power, speed, defense at Double-A
Corona is slashing .252/.327/.469 with 20 home runs and 29 steals in 104 games for Double-A Corpus Christi.
A potentially plus defensive center fielder, Corona doesn't have to clear a very high offensive bar to eventually earn significant playing time in the big leagues. His 25.9 percent strikeout rate and 70.9 percent contact rate portend mediocre batting averages in his future, but his defense should still buy him opportunities into his mid-20s.
