MLB in brief: Carlos Correa doesn’t hold a grudge against the Giants and the Mets | Pete Alonso gives back

Carlos Correa is not angry with the Giants and the Mets

He’s happy to be in Minnesota.

The Twins have confidence in Correa.

When other teams started to shy away from Carlos Correa because of ankle concerns, why were the @Twins comfortable with a substantial offer? Twins President of Baseball Operations Derek Falvey explained why on “The Front Office”. #CarlosCorrea | #MNTwins pic.twitter.com/R1HOx91RZW

Pete Alonso gives back

He raised funds through a circuit competition.

A long-term contract extension is not imminent in his case in New York.

The condition of Trey Mancini’s contract with the Cubs

He will get the right to use his out option if he shows up at bat 350 times in 2023.

Two stones at once?

Do the Mets think they can sign Shohei Ohtani AND Manny Machado?

Respectfully, this is not “news.” This was said in the context of a longer discussion. Without that context it probably has the effect of raising fan expectations as if I were reporting something more concrete. https://t.co/74S8jVe0UG

Rafael Devers wanted to stay in Boston

And Chaim Bloom made sure that happened.
