Signing Carlos Correa gives the Giants legitimacy and the cornerstone player they’ve needed since Buster Posey’s retirement.
It’s hard to say if the balance of power shifts in the National League West with Correa’s mega $350 million contract, which will span 13 years. One player can only make so much of a difference.
But Correa is an elite player who should, just now, be entering his prime, and every team could use someone like him. The Giants desperately needed someone like him. So while adding Correa doesn’t give the Giants an automatic leg up on the Padres and Dodgers, San Francisco now has a fighting chance against those teams now that a player worth 7.2 WAR per 162 games is in black and orange.First, he’s a bat they can put in the No. 2 or No. 3 hole every single day. Righty or lefty, day or night, rain or shine.
He also gives this organization a cornerstone from which everything else is built — something it has lacked in its two recent seasons without Buster Posey. He’s the kind of top player other top players want to be around. The Giants desperately needed someone like that.
