Carlos Correa is one of the best shortstops today thanks to his impeccable defense and impeccable hitting that have led him to great success in the Majors. In addition to also raising a World Series trophy.
However, the Puerto Rican the previous season rejected an offer from the Houston Astros, considering the sum that the sidereals offered him for the next few seasons insufficient. campaigns and later, he accepted $105, 3 million dollars for three seasons and with the option of opting out in each of them.
This last point has just been fulfilled as expected and the main intention is to be able to obtain a long-term multimillion-dollar contract; which could make the Puerto Rican one of the highest paid players in baseball.
Furthermore, despite not reaching a new postseason, Correa considered the season 2022 very successful due to his great numbers and also, he was also physically good; so it would be easier for him to demand good pretensions.
“With the year I had, my health and being in the best moment of my career, at 28 years, the correct decision is that”, commented the shortstop.
Correa connected 152 unstoppable, among them 24 doubles, a triple and hit a total of 22 balls and drove in a total of 64 races for an average with the wood of .291; not bad for his first harvest away from Minute Maid Park in Houston.
The positive One of Correa’s decisions to go through free agency again is that he won’t have competition around him from other high-caliber players looking for a big contract. As happened the previous year with Marcus Semien and Corey Seager.
Although it is not known which team will bid for their services, the Minnesota Twins will be one of them and, most likely, the The New York Yankees could also meet with the player to seek a great contract to secure the most important position in the Bronx.
