MINNEAPOLIS — Derek Falvey was sitting next to his wife on his couch at home on Tuesday night when he received a text from agent Scott Boras. Carlos Correa, Boras' client, was signing with the San Francisco Giants for 13 years and $350 million.
The Twins' final offer was 10 years for $285 million, which would have easily set franchise records for length and money.
Had the Twins matched the Giants' offer in terms of contract length, they probably would have regretted it, if not in the next eight years then almost certainly thereafter.
