Carlos Correa has had an eventful offseason, to say the least. After having a decent 2022 season, Correa was one of the biggest names available in free agency. It went as expected, as Correa agreed on a massive 13-year $350 million deal with the San Francisco Giants. But then that deal got canceled over medical concerns.
The World Champion then agreed to a 12-year $315 million deal with the New York Mets. But fast-forward a few days and that deal was in jeopardy as well. But luckily, Correa has been able to bring some normality back to his life and enjoyed celebrating the New Year.
