Marcus Stroman’s already sending Twitter recruiting pitches to Carlos Correa after MLB lockout ends

Baseball’s return was less than a half hour old and Marcus Stroman’s already using Twitter for recruitment pitches.

In case you hadn’t heard, baseball is back as the MLBPA and MLB have agreed to terms and will start a full season on April 7. Fans are happy, teams and players are happy, and oh, free agency is set to begin Thursday evening. It’s gonna be a wild ride, that’s for sure.

Stroman wasted no time once the lockout ended, immediately sending a sales pitch to top free agent Carlos Correa on Twitter in the hopes that the former Houston Astro will join up with the pitcher’s new team, the Chicago Cubs, before Opening Day.

Given the chaos that’s likely to ensue in the month leading up to Opening Day, why not shoot your shot? We’ll see where the coveted shortstop lands over the next few weeks, as it very well could be Chicago!
