The Mets already made the MLB world go wonder-struck after reports of an estimated $421 million payroll for next season. Billionaire owner Steve Cohen has been utilizing his financial prowess to perfection. In a string of high-profile acquisitions, the Mets are reportedly aiming to sign up free-agent Carlos Correa. The news has come at a time when the Mets are adding one sharp string after another to their bow.
What do the fans think about the New York Mets’ next potential move?
The rumored reports about the Mets’ interest in Carlos Correa have been making the rounds. Notably, Correa suddenly dropped out of his Minnesota Twins contract this year. The two-time All-Star player made his MLB debut with the Houston Astros in 2015.

MLB insider Ken Rosenthal shared the news on his official Twitter account, quoting, “Mets showing interest in Carlos Correa.”

This reeks of Boras trying to pressure teams actually interested in signing Correa into panicking and overpaying for him. Make ‘em scared that big bad Steve Cohen is gonna swoop in at the last minute so they pay the asking price.
