The San Francisco Giants had agreed to a 13-year, $350 million deal with prized free agent Carlos Correa after the 2022 season. But they backed out due to medical concerns. No deal that big had ever had such a late withdrawal from the proceedings, but the Giants made the call that they couldn't go through with it.

Correa then agreed to a deal with the Mets that didn't get to the finish line either, and he wound up with the Twins on a smaller contract (although still $200 million). The Twins eventually traded Correa back to the Houston Astros , where his season just ended Wednesday. Correa tore a tendon in his left ankle during batting practice in the cages on Tuesday, and that was that.
