Every team desperate for a shortstop definitely has Carlos Correa on their list. The former Houston Astros star has been weighed as the top free agent in the market and is yet to sign a deal.

Considering what he can bring to the team with his supreme talent, Carlos is expected to receive an insane $300 million above deal. Notably, newly joined agent, Scott Boras thinks he has a unique talent deserving of that figure.

Agent Scott Boras praises Carlos Correa

There’s still time in the upliftment of the MLB lockout; however, at least the negotiations have resumed. Ahead of the MLB free agency craziness, Carlos made a huge agent shift to optimize his chances.

Carlos hired Scott Boras, who has fetched huge deals for Gerrit Cole and Corey Seager in the past, as his new agent. In a recent interview, Scott opened up about Carlos’ skills and why he would add value wherever he goes.

”Elite athletic skill at a premium position. One of the premium defenders-Won the Platinum Glove….one of the premier offensive players at his position. Postseason, extraordinary performance, he gets all levels met… Playing great when it matters the most in postseason, those are things few players accomplish…Very, very unique talent to acquire, “ Scott said.

The MLB franchises are aware of Correa’s talent; however, there were reports about teams being doubtful about offering him a long-term deal. Albeit, with Scott beside him, he might attain his desired deal.

New York Yankees, Chicago Cubs, and Houston Astros- Top teams in the Carlos race

Expectedly, Carlos’ former team, the Houston Astros, are on the list of his potential buyers. However, giving them a tough competition are the New York Yankees and the Chicago Cubs.

Carlos had contacted a former Cubs’ shortstop to inquire about the Chicago team. Despite the lockout, Carlos’ name has been in the headlines constantly, and while it has been crazy with so many teams linked to him, it will get only better once free agency starts over.
