Carlos Correa, on his third try, found a team, the Minnesota Twins, who will accept him for who he is, past ankle surgery and all.
Carlos Correa must have felt like he invested with Bernie Madoff the way his financial portfolio crashed over the past month – but finally on the third try, he has found a team who will accept him for who he is, past ankle surgery and all.
The deal, of course, is contingent on Correa passing a physical but the Twins say they have no concerns with his 2014 ankle surgery after playing for them last season, and passing the physical. The Mets, according to two officials, backed out of their original deal for the same reason the Giants passed: They were afraid that his 2014 ankle surgery would create a problem in the years to come.
Correa, a person close to him divulged, was furious. He did not want to budge at all. The longer the negotiations dragged on, the more Correa dug in.
