The Giants landed their big fish. It turned out not to be Aaron Judge but Carlos Correa. Correa will replace fan favorite Brandon Crawford at shortstop and be the "face of the franchise" for a mind-boggling 13 years. These mega-deals are actually all about short-term returns. Teams expect big performances right away and are willing to punt on the back end. No one expects Judge or Correa to be All-Stars at age 37, but there's a good chance they will still be productive. No, Judge and/or Correa are supposed to be All-Stars right now.
The Giants need some All-Stars and Correa fits the bill nicely.
