Carlos Correa reached a contract agreement with the New York Mets late Tuesday night after his previous deal with the San Francisco Giants fell apart over issues revealed in his physical exam, the New York Post reported.
The free agent shortstop and the Mets agreed to a 12-year, $315 million contract, per the Post, a step down from the 13-year, $350 million pact Correa was due to get from the Giants.

He was set to be introduced as San Francisco's newest acquisition on Tuesday before the press conference was abruptly canceled.

'It's not like I'm not respectful about what these other teams have to deal with.'
