The Carlos Correa circus is over and we have one message for Brett Baty: go out and buy yourself a quality steak dinner.
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 were so willing to toss aside a great corner infield prospect in Baty for the oft-injured Correa is ridiculous. Forget that “he’s great when he’s healthy” and think long-term. Was a 12-year, $315 million contract and switching Correa from shortstop to Baty’s third base ever going to be a good idea?
