The Giants Got Their Guy
Someone finally took the Giants' money. It wasn't Aaron Judge—but it was Ross Stripling.
And then it was Carlos Correa. The 28-year-old shortstop signed a 13-year, $350 million deal. If the numbers feel insane, it's because they are. Imagine how old you'll be in 13 years. Eeek.
But the Giants finally got Their Guy. Their Bryce Harper. Their Mookie Betts. Their Mike Trout.
Will he be worth it? It (almost) doesn't matter.
The Giants won by getting him to sign the deal. They won't win for the next 13 years, but if nothing else, they're trying. That's what matters.
