Correa played in 109, 110 and 75 games during his age 22, 23 and 24 seasons. So he has participated in 294/486 regular season games (60%). 

He has HOF talent, to be sure, but I'd be hesitant to go all-in/long-term on a guy that missed 2 out of every 5 games (over a 3-year stretch) in his early 20s. 

Either way, both guys have always seemed intent on getting to free agency rather than signing an extension. All that is subject to change, of course. 

But who knows what the market will be - Correa will be a FA at the same time as Lindor and Seager and Story, I think (?). So the SS market may be a little saturated, and Lindor figures to be the prize (Seager has had trouble staying healthy too). Maybe That makes CC a little more affordable. Difficult to gauge what MLB spending (or anything else in the world) will look like in the winter of 2021. 

Yep- and that’s what I was saying was Correa’s only issue is injury. Now- that’s sort of like saying other than that Mrs Lincoln how was the play.

Maybe they are talking about this on tv but Ford talking about last time Astros catcher caught both ends of a DH

Eusebio.1995

And he caught more innings in game 1 than Machete would do in both today.

17 innings.

caught the first 8 in game 2 before being replaced by Jared Goff’s dad


Padres catcher also caught both ends of the DH. But he had to because Brad Ausmus was the other catcher and had recently punched a water cooler that resulted in needing 6 stitches.
