There were many moving parts involved in Carlos Correa’s unexpected return to the Twins. With the shortstop's introductory press conference complete, AaronGleeman has thoughts on the dominos that could fall in the aftermath.
Scott Boras represents both Correa and Lewis, which made for an interesting dynamic as one client signed up to be the long-term starter at another client’s main position. In true Boras form, he dropped a one-liner when asked about Lewis’ reaction: “He was always excited about playing with Carlos, because Carlos is a water fountain that quenches your thirst for information.”
is yet another Twins player represented by Boras, and it sounds like the 25-year-old’s recovery from a second straight season-ending wrist surgery has gone well thus far.“He feels really good,” Falvey said. “One of the things he dealt with last year, with some soreness at times, then it leads to hesitation, then it leads to just not really letting it go and trying to guide the wrist through. He’s finally at a point where, when he lets it go, he’s like, OK, this is what it used to feel like.
Locking in Correa for the next six-plus seasons certainly changes the infield dynamic significantly, perhaps making it easier to shop core major leaguers or even top prospects. Overall position player depth, and specifically infield and corner outfield depth, is suddenly a huge organization-wide strength, and it’s always logical to trade from strength to improve weakness. Trades are coming., bringing back Correa bumped the Twins from the AL’s ninth-best team to the AL’s seventh-best team.
