Carlos Correa's wife Daniella remains optimistic as the All-Star shortstop passes physical and re-signs with the Twins
Carlos Correa's wife, Daniella Correa, is full of hope as the All-Star shortstop passed his physical and re-signed with the Minnesota Twins on a six-year, $200 million contract.
The Correa-Twins deal was revealed on Wednesday, January 11, after a $350 million deal with the San Francisco Giants and a $315 million offer from the New York Mets fell apart due to worries over Carlos' ankle.
Now that the shortstop is back in Minnesota, his wife, Daniella, is over the moon and remains optimistic despite the lengthy debacle.
Taking to Instagram, she wrote:
"One thing I’ve learned throughout this process is that life will always make sure it takes you just where you need to be. We were destined to be Twins ❤️ I’m happy to be a part of this organization for years to come! 🤩"
Given the Twins' contract amount, Carlos Correa took a $150 million cut in his paycheck.
