The best shortstop on the market is going to the Giants, and, as expected, he wasn’t cheap. Carlos Correa reportedly agreed to a massive 13-year deal worth $350 million to leave the Twins, and with the new deal, he reached a payday never before seen by someone at his position
Correa’s deal has the highest-value among shortstop contracts in MLB history. His new deal eclipsed Francisco Lindor’s 10-year deal worth $341 million, but his average doesn’t quite measure up to Lindor or others, ranking sixth in average annual value.
The two-time All Star started his professional career with the Astros after getting selected with the No. 1 pick in the 2012 MLB draft. He made his professional debut in ’15 and got a World Series win ’17 before signing with the Twins last year.
