Carlos Correa 2023 MLB Player Outlook: A Low Price With MVP Talent
2 years agoIt's time to move past what went down this offseason for shortstop Carlos Correa. Most importantly, he ended up signing with the Minnesota Twins on a six-year deal worth $200 million with multiple conditions that could keep him in Minnesota through 2032. He's arguably the most talented shortstop out there, and he's got all of the intangibles in the game to mold a superstar. The optimal goal is to get him healthy and fix up his finger, which caused him a handful of games this past season. Correa molded a .834 OPS this past season with a 140 OPS+. He missed 30+ games, but his compiled stats are equivalent to MVP numbers. The 28-year-old plated 64 runs and topped off the year with a .362 wOBA through 590 plate appearances. Assuming that Correa is ailment free, it would be worth the while to draft him early on. ATC projects Correa with a .270/.349/.456 slash line with 23 home runs, 76 RBI, 77 runs, and .350 wOBA in 2023. He's granted a 119.88 ADP from NFBC, but he's certainly more valuable than his current mark.
