Eight days after Carlos Correa tentatively agreed with the San Francisco Giants on a 13-year, $350 million free-agent contract, his agent, Scott Boras, told the team he could wait no longer.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe reached an agreement. We had a letter of agreement. We gave them a time frame to execute it,\u201d Boras said. \u201cThey advised us they still had questions. They still wanted to talk to other people, other doctors, go through it.<\/p>\n
\u201cI said, ‘Look, I’ve given you a reasonable time. We need to move forward on this. Give me a time frame. If you’re not going to execute, I need to go talk with other teams.\u201d<\/p>\n
Boras did just that early Wednesday morning, reaching agreement for Correa with the Mets on a 12-year, $315 million contract. That deal, too, is pending a physical, but Mets owner Steve Cohen is already on record talking about his addition, telling the New York Post, \u201cWe needed one more thing, and this is it.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nIf you felt a little dizzy upon waking up, you weren’t alone. <\/p>\n
