Major League Baseball needs to have more consideration for everyone’s sleep, man. How are people supposed to get some shut-eye when you’ve got stars signing league-changing deals in the middle of the night? Sheesh.
Former Houston Astro Correa has been one of the most hated figures in baseball for a while following the Astros’ sign-stealing scandal from 2018.
Now, he’s one of the league’s highest-paid at his position, too. Wild how that works.
Correa signed a massive 3-year deal with the Minnesota Twins that would give him the highest average annual value for an MLB infielder, according to Fox’s Chris Berman.
MLB source: Free agent shortstop Carlos Correa has reached an agreement with the Minnesota Twins (@Twins) on a three-year deal worth $105.3 million with opt outs after the first two years. Highest average annual value for an MLB infielder.

That’s about $35 million per year. And, if he doesn’t like the situation, he has opt-outs after the first two years. It hasn’t been made official just yet, but that sounds like a pretty sweet deal.
Baseball fans were shocked. Twins fans were elated. Astros fans were in pain. There were so many emotions rolling in after this one.
