In one of the most shocking turns of events in recent memory, Carlos Correa has flipped coasts and will now be signing with the Mets. The baseball world was thrown into a tizzy Tuesday afternoon when the Giants postponed the press conference to announce Correa’s signing after an issue arose with his medicals. Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle tweeted that the Giants had flagged something during the physical but that doctors disagreed.
Slusser had previously reported that Correa’s balky back was not the issue, but it’s not known at this point what was.
