    What is also nuts is the Astros didn't have to go all the way to 35 million to match. Minnesota has state income tax that is 9.85% on income over $261,510 for married filing jointly.

    Yeah me too !!!! Honestly I don’t think he had any intentions of really getting Correa back.

    Why not? 1 year for 35M to s as low risk of f a professional contract as you can get. Even if he stayed for full 3 years for whatever reasons, it’s still very low risk contract. Crane sucks!!!

    In typical Houston sports fashion.

    If something can go wrong it usually does.

    The guy made it seem like the Astros didn't like the 1 year opt out but 1 year is better than 0 years.

    Man… I’m hoping there some sort of reasoning behind this. Like the team was deeply concerned about his medical report or something. I just cannot see how the Astros could not get this kind of deal done.

    Can wait to hear how Crane/Click will spin this. My guess would be Astros want longer term and Boras want a shorter deal so CC can opted out after 1 year. Even then, still stupid not to sign him for 1 year.
