The deal comes after Carlos Correa was supposed to be introduced as San Francisco Giant, but an undisclosed medical concern put that on pause. Now, he's headed east.
Wednesday, December 21, 2022 1:50PMTwo people with direct knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press that the Giants postponed a news conference to introduce Carlos Correa.
His deal was scheduled to be announced in a news conference Tuesday, but the Giants announced that morning that it had been postponed. The Associated Press subsequently reported that an undisclosed medical concern arose during Correa's physical examination, but people throughout the industry who spoke to ESPN still believed the deal would be finalized. Then the Mets swooped in, grabbing another superstar player in their aggressive pursuit of a championship.
With Correa's deal, the Mets, led by uber-aggressive owner Steve Cohen, have committed more than $800 million to free agents this offseason. They brought back center fielder Brandon Nimmo and closer Edwin Diaz on nine-figure contracts, and signed starting pitchers Justin Verlander, Kodai Senga and Jose Quintana, relievers Adam Ottavino and David Robertson, and catcher Omar Narvaez. Their competitive balance tax payroll now projects to be somewhere in the neighborhood of $380 million.
