Carlos Correa BACK to the Twins reportedly!! (Correa, Twins reach deal, pending physical)
shortstop Carlos Correa And the Minnesota twins finalizing a six year, a $200 million contract. Sources tell ESPN the deals investing option that can max out at 217 million. It is still pending physical. Here we are as we welcome you back inside studio. Okay, waiting to see a resolution about him. And that’s, wow. We just opened our email, your thoughts. You’re reaction Harold. Well, when you heard a twins are back in it, I knew the Mets were not comfortable. It was going to be a short term Diehl And I kept saying if he says hits five
years, I think other clubs jump in. So the uncomfortable part of going out 10 years was trying to ensure it. And do you need to do you need the to be able to get the luxury tax stretched out, but more the twins dont fit in that category. They just had him clearly they’re going to do their own physical again. This is all pending physical. So they’re comfortable with that and that’s where we ended up. Yeah, we here the twins but were still kind of thought around here, maybe something will get worked out. You know it
yesterday, I felt like Mets are out and you have said that because you said as time goes by, something’s just not right. Yu said that
It’s like when you go by that Carr and after you lingered on it for about a week, everybody’s told you your cousin’s, you’re mom, you’re and you know what I mean and that’s what happened. I think here, the longer you cit with people that don’t know you , the more conversations you have and then at the end I think the mets are like we’re out. Jp maroc been following this story larry closely, let’s welcome him in JP reaction to this news just moments ago. Good morning. Well Lauren and Harold, this is how we think the
Correa story end’s. And again, Harold said some very important words there still pending the physical II think that here we are in the 10th of january. This is where Correa is going to spend the foreseeable future and two herald’s point, the twins know his medicals better than anybody else. This was the only Team that would have had the most recent imaging all the informations as of the end of the 2022 season, which obviously was when the scare of this, this ankle issue came back up and Correa by his own acknowledgement late in the season had
felt vibration in the plate that’s in his ankle and that was sort of what began this entire, so saga with the Giants , the Mets and now going back to the Minnesota twins and you consider where he got with the Avie and this is an important number despite everything that was going on and where the, the 80 would’ve been, might have been with the Giants and the Mets. And the reality is only two contracts in baseball history for a shortstop Were higher than the $333.3 million 81 was Korea’s short short term deal with the twins
that he opted out of that stil. Right now the record, it ended up being just one year deal and then Lynn door at 34 was the second highest and now this one. So despite everything going back and forth, he actually did get a better a V than the diehl he turned down from the tigers now what’s seems like ancient history ago after the 2020 won season, which was to 75 over then so despite all of this, he did quite well with this contract now wasn’t with the team that he wanted that all along heel probably
say that the reality was that certainly he had an agreement at least in principal with to other franchises. So clearly he was interested in going elsewhere. But the reality was the comfort of the people there, the medical staff knowing him knowing his, his body and what it takes from to get ready to play every day. It’s going to be where he plays for the foreseeable future. And and the twins still Lauren have a legitimate path two the playoffs. It’s it’s in a division that’s not as challenging, obviously as the National League East, when you consider
fighting with the likes of the, they still have a chance to make the playoffs this
