NFL playoffs: Giants’ Adoree’ Jackson to play vs. Vikings

The Mets losing Carlos Correa won’t stop them from pursuing another star infielder next offseason. A quick recap: First, it was Correa for 12 years, $315 million. A flagged medical report later, it was only six years and $157.5 million with incentives and options. Correa eventually returned to Minnesota for six years and $200 million, … Continued

The Mets’ 2023 plan for third base has evolved despite not actually changing at all. I mean, do you remember the whole Carlos Correa thing? How he was going to play next to Francisco Lindor for the next decade? No, I don’t remember that either (I’m kidding). After things fell apart and Correa re-signed with … Continued

The Mets’ offense is mostly set and we shouldn’t expect any more big splashes this winter. However, there’s still some work to be done. At the moment, the only primary outfielder on the roster other than the three starters (Mark Canha, Brandon Nimmo, and Starling Marte) is Khalil Lee. He hasn’t had much big-league experience, … Continued

And while you’re at it, maybe ask owner Steve Cohen for a good-faith, team-friendly contract extension. OK, fine. Maybe not an extension, but you get the idea. The fact that the Mets … Continued

Remember when Carlos Correa was going to play for the Mets? I’d say I will remember that time fondly, but I really won’t. The elation of a deal coming together went away just a few days later when news dropped of New York having an issue with his physical/medicals. From there, it was mostly annoyance … Continued

We have a conclusion to the Mets-Carlos Correa saga everyone had been craving. But for New York fans who still wanted him to land in Flushing, it wasn’t the conclusion they were looking for. Instead of a deal similar to the 12-year, $315 million agreement they had been trying to finalize, Correa, a Scott Boras … Continued

We’ve talked about what’s going on with the Mets and Carlos Correa enough for now, folks. Let’s instead focus on Jose Quintana for a few moments, shall we?
