The San Francisco Giants would not be denied in their quest for a franchise-altering superstar. They've agreed to a 13-year, $350 million deal with Carlos Correa that is a new record for a shortstop.
A free agent for the second winter in a row, Correa had opted out of a three-year, $105.3 million contract he signed with the Minnesota Twins during spring training. Correa hit .291 with 22 home runs and 64 RBI in his lone season with the team.
Not a bad call to turn down the five-year, $160 million contract the Astros offered him at the end of the 2021 season. Selected first overall by the Astros in 2012, Correa was the AL Rookie of the Year in 2015 and played in three World Series with Houston, winning a championship in 2017 – now infamous due to club's sign-stealing scandal.
The Giants will welcome that production after a platoon-heavy offense sputtered as their core continued to age. Correa's addition likely means that incumbent shortstop Brandon Crawford will slide to second or third base.
