MLB: Yankees and Tigres are favorites to sign Carlos Correa

Low season of MLB It started at an unbridled pace maybe because of the deadline what the expiration of the joint contract means between Major League Baseball and the MLBPA, with a large part of the top free agents in the market quickly negotiating the achievement of a contract, this class being one of the most talented in recent years, with only the shortstop position having a minimum of 6 players of caliber.e All-Star available in the market, such as Corey Seager, Marcus Semien, Trevor Story, Javier Báez, Andrelton Simmons and Carlos Correa.

The latter is perhaps considered the number 1 free agent in the entire market and the one who will probably make the most money, with according to information from Mark Feinsand of MLB.com mentioning that several executives believe that there will be more than one team interested in giving him what you ask.

Apparently, according to information from the same reporter, the two teams most likely to sign the Puerto Rican are the New York Yankees and the Detroit Tigers, with those from the Bronx willing to disburse the amount of money that Correa asks for his contract (little more than $ 300 million), while the Tigers have former shortstop manager and who he was World Series champion with with the Astros in 2017 on their side, AJ Hinch, and they would not skimp on money either.

Other teams interested in Correa would be the Los Angeles Dodgers, New York Mets and Chicago White Sox, with all of them having options at shortstop or free agents who could re-sign off the same team, as is the case with Corey. Seager with the Dodgers and Javier Báez at the Mets.

I started as a rookie on Al Bat in early 2018 and I am going into my third season covering Major League Baseball as a web reporter. I am a fan of the San Francisco Giants, a number one defender of Barry Bonds and a critic of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Fernando Tatis Jr., Juan Soto and Ronald Acuña are the future of baseball, Mike Trout is overrated, and the Astros deserved to be taken away from the World Series for cheating. Besides baseball, I also enjoy soccer, football, basketball, and just about any other game that includes a ball or a ball. I am also an amateur musician, penniless gamer and very nerdy. Graduated in journalism from the University of Guadalajara, I graduated in 2017. Born in the shrimp capital of the world, Escuinapa, Sinaloa. I lived in Australia for a while; i survived giant spiders, tasmanian devils and fought a kangaroo and didn’t die trying.
