Tipsheet: Carlos Correa boomerangs to Twins after Giants, Mets nix deals

Carlos Correa was going to sign a 13-year, $350 million contract with the San Francisco Giants. The Giants backed out of the deal because of Correas' ankle injury. Steve Cohen offered a 12-years, but the Mets also balked. Now Correr is going back to the Minnesota Twins on a six- years, and it could grow to 10 years and $270 million.

Correa is leaving the Twins and signing a six-year, $200M deal with the Mets. The deal is more expensive than the original one, but it's better than what the other team offered. Correa had a 5.4 WAR last year in Minnesota. He hit .291 with 22 home runs in that year. He would have been paid $26.25M less than in the new deal. It's possible the team will look for another bat at some point.

The Twins have taken control of the division. The Los Angeles Dodgers decided to cut ties with Trevor Bauer. The New York Mets' deal with Carlos Correa fell through. It was the first time the Dodgers had spoken to Trevor in the 18 months since he was placed on paid administrative leave. They decided Friday morning that Trevor would never again put on a Dodger uniform again. He is owed $22.5 million this season. There are concerns about his contract. In the summer, what's missing will be easier to spot.   The teams that didn't sign Correas succeeded in mitigating some risk and nothing more.
