Correa might be the last two big
name shortstop left and Whynott
wade and see where the market
gose but now he has set the
market even bigger then we
thought it could go as he makes
ultimately that huge megadeal
with San Francisco 350 million.
I didn't see it coming.
I mean, I knew it was a big
deal.
I think what is shocking to me
dann is the years, you know,
before, I think 34 years ago the
years was kinda that stopping
point.
That team's would say, well
we're not gonna go passed six,
we're not gonna go past 8 13
like they're blowing it out of
the water.
So I don't know, I mean we're
going to have to re evaluate all
these contracts, maybe 78 years
down the road.
But for now this is what the
market saying.
If you want to big guy, you got
to give them the year's and the
dollars.
And I think you start with bryce
harper when he got the 330
million over the same amount of
times.
It's an A.B play at this point
Time.
He made a ton of money.
But he actually, his average
annual values 27 million.
So it gives the giants weigh
more flexibility.
They almost have no committed
money in the books as they move
forward at all fascinating to me
though, in the sense that when
you look at Carlos, can you
envision hymn playing shortstop
for the next 13 years.
I can't his bat profile and
be able to move to third base,
but now he becomes kind of the
face of the franchise in some
ways.
I think it's a better fit than
Aaron Judge mike because I do
think it's easier to build up
the middle of the field and now
you that out to shortstop to the
team.
He's more of a gap to gap hitter
where erin was more of a home
run hitter that park doesn't
play necessarily for home run.
So I love the signing butt.
Now he becomes the face of the
franchise on the club that still
has for me sum ways to go before
they closed the gap between the
other two teams in that
division.
The Dodgers and the Padres
remember too that they still
have a Brandon Crawford who had
a down season but is still
eligible.
He's got two more year's left
with them but you just mentioned
it, they wanted to have that
face, the name, make a pop for
themselves.
It was the smallest attendance
oracle park ever seen lasts
season.
And so you need some of those
boosts.
We've already seen them add the
starting pitching.
Was there a name u maybe think
they could have garnered that.
They needed more than a Correa
at shortstop that would have
given that this kind of a guy
for a reason.
No, it was a Aaron Judge, I mean
if you want the biggest name out
there, it would be Aaron Judge.
But to your point dan, there's,
there's going to be a little bit
of a, I'm not going to see a
culture shift, but like who do
we identify with shift there in
san Francisco because it was
Brandon belt, Brandon Crawford
and buster posey.
So now there's there's a
different crop now, this might
play out better, it's just I
think when you see the numbers
and you see the disparity of his
contract compared to other guys
on his team, you're going to be
expected to do a lot.
Is he capable of doing it?
A absolutely what I do like
about Correa is playoff proven,
excelling in the playoffs, not
afraid of the big moment.
He, he projects to be a
superstar for a number of years.
So once again, you know, this is
a over a decade, if you said
Carlos Correa had a great 13
year career, he'd be like man
that's pretty good for a number
one pick, he panned out like hes
played six, like you're going
out 20 years.
The dynamic of him too now, you
know, you think about mike, um
he's been playing in his career
to get this kind of contract, so
everything that he's done from a
a players standpoint other than
Treinen to win World Series of
course he's put himself now in a
position where he didn't have to
think about the any more so does
his thought process in the game
changed a little bit because for
me when I was a bit around great
players that ended up signing
multigenerational contract, it
really, truly all becomes about
winning them how because he's,
they've already filled the
buckets from a financial
perspective, how do we win?
How do I become the type of guy
that helps my teammates become
better in the process of trying
too help them win.
That's now the expectation when
you placed on this kind of a
player.
I always found it it's harder
for a player to do that coming
in outside organization than
being developed from within the
organisation.
All the previous guys you
mentioned other than bonds.
They've really been developed
from that organisation from the
ground floor up.
Yeah, it is interesting because
you get the dynamic of sure
every player I was part of it.
I can't wait till hit
arbitration.
You know, you get these big jump
from the money he made in the
minor leagues to your first
couple years in the big leagues
like that box has been checked
for Carlos, you know,
multigenerational now.
Right, so hes got that done.
This might be a good thing.
You know, this is one
distraction.
We now have to worry about that
for a while.
I can hone in on all the skills.
I can't and almost be a little
bit of a mentor to guys coming
up because the Giants, our not a
team that is just going to,
they're not gonna spend for the
best outfield, the best first
baseman, the best they're not
that they're much more of a
measured team and they made some
good moves, they still have
money that they can spend when
you look at where they at where
they're at and I don't know if
that kind of gap has been
shortened between themselves and
the Padres and the Dodgers, but
things can change pretty
quickly.
I think Melanie from a GM
perspective, you know, these are
there additions and subtractions
and they did lose a big one when
they lost Rendon but I do like
