What fans are saying about the Carlos Correa contract
The Minnesota Twins are paying him what he wants up front & have a built-in parachute if things go badly later on.
Did not see this ending this way. Minnesota assumes ALL of the risk here. If his leg holds up the entirety of the contract then the Twins win. Would have loved to see him at 3B for the Mets , but now time to move on.
