Al-Zaidi spoke about Korea’s agreement with SF, which did not materialize

Ten days after the Giants deal with Carlos Correa for 13 years and $350 million with the star shortstop She collapsed due to medical problemsBaseball operations chief Farhan Zaidi spoke publicly about the situation in a virtual press conference calling what happened “disappointing” and disappointing.

The Giants were scheduled to perform Correa at Oracle Park on December 20, but the event was canceled three hours before the event. According to various reports, the San Francisco Ninth, the Giants were concerned about Corea’s right leg being turned on. Actor Scott Boras at one point agreed to a 12-year, $315 million deal with the Mets.

“We’ve had some conversations since then, but we understand she’s focused on a deal elsewhere at this time,” al-Zaidi said. “So, I think the possibility of them reaching an agreement with us at this point is unlikely given the position they are in.”

Correa underwent arthroscopic surgery to repair a fractured right fibula in 2014, as a 19-year-old for the Astros’ farm. But Al-Zaidi hinted that the Giants found new information during the physical belt that was not in his file.

According to al-Zaidi, the giants were quick to communicate their concerns to Boras. The two parties spoke on the phone as soon as Boras’ plane landed in San Francisco at 5 PM Pacific Time on December 19, the actual day of Korea.

Despite what happened, Zaidi said he’s confident the Giants will be in a fighting position next season after the acquisitions of Mitch Hanegger, Michael Conforto, Taylor Rogers, Sean Mania and Ross Stripling.

The CEO said, “It’s disappointing, but at the same time we’re turning the page and we’re excited about the players we have that we’ll continue to add. That will be our focus now as the calendar moves into 2023.”
