NEW YORK — Carlos Correa, the superstar infielder who on Wednesday agreed to terms with the Mets after a deal with the Giants fell through, was here on Thursday to undergo his physical exam, his agent, Scott Boras, said.
That step is not a formality: The Giants deal evaporated after the team expressed concern about the player’s health. San Francisco had reportedly agreed to terms with Correa on a $350 million, 13-year contract last Tuesday, and the parties signed a letter of agreement. On Monday, the team announced it would hold a press conference the following day.
