Carlos Correa to Mets: New York's 2023 World Series odds increase 25 percent, now co-favorite for NL pennant after stealing Correa from Giants

Carlos Correa has signed a 12-year, $315 million contract with the New York Mets. He was supposed to sign a 13-years,$350 million deal with San Francisco Giants. The deal was never signed because of a medical concern. Corrao will play third base for the Mets, while Eduardo Escobar will be a utility player. The Mets are now the co-favorites for NL pennant with Los Angeles Dodgers. They are also the second favorite to win the 2023 World Series behind the Astros. New Yorkers are tied with Yankees and ahead of the Dodgers in the odds of winning the title.

The Mets are expected to win the World Series in their fourth season under Cohen. They have two Cy Young winners in the rotation in Max Scherzer and Justin Verlander. Cohen has spent more than $800 million on free agents this offseason. The Giants have come up short after offering Aaron Judge and Carlos Correa. The 2023 season starts on March 30 in Miami.
