Carlos Correa's Astros tenure is over after he agrees to a stunning new deal with the Minnesota Twins

“I thought for sure we definitely had a great chance at getting him,” third baseman Alex Bregman said. “Was definitely surprised this morning when I woke up.” Correa left the Astros for something many presumed he’d sworn off. He turned down two contract extensions last spring to bet on himself. Correa won the wager with a wonderful 2021 season but intends to press his luck again. His hope for a more robust and uninterrupted free agent market in 2022 or 2023 — where a longer, more stable deal is realistic — is apparent.
“You just don’t know in these situations and sometimes last minute teams swoop in. This past year was the first time I’d dealt with free agency and it gets pretty crazy there at the 11th hour. Sometimes the best plans don’t unfold the way you envision them.” This spring, Click kept consistently coy in all conversations concerning Correa. Crane did what he often does, rekindle hope for a situation some presumed hopeless. He said in October the Astros would be “in the mix” for Correa. He had similar sentiments when Springer and Cole explored free agency. Words rang hollow then. Saturday, somehow, they seemed more meaningless.
