Carlos Correa was finally able to shed some light on his six weeks of contract negotiations after his six-year, $200 million deal with the Minnesota Twins was finalized this week.
The 28-year-old Correa, along with his wife Daniella and their 1-year-old son Kylo, were formally re-introduced by the Twins after he passed his much-anticipated physical on Wednesday. He expressed some shock at how it all went down with the San Francisco Giants, the Mets and finally the Twins, as well as relief with the finality of it all and excitement to be back with the organization he played for last season.
“It was not what we expected going into the offseason,’’ Correa said Wednesday. “Going into the physicals, there were no concerns on my part. My body feels great. I played throughout the season and never felt better. So yeah, it was surprising.”
