Carlos Correa Diagnosed With Plantar Fasciitis And Muscle Strain In Left Foot

Twins shortstop Carlos Correa has been diagnosed with a muscle strain in his left foot arch and plantar fasciitis, per John Shipley of the St. Paul Pioneer Press. Correa hasn’t yet been placed on the injured list but it seems like that’s still on the table. “I think we get to Friday and some of our decisions might be made for us,” manager Rocco Baldelli says.

what a disaster for the twins. Just 6.6 years and 224M to go

When he’s ready they can always move him to DH. Except they already have an elite up the middle defender restricted to DHing for injury concerns.

#3 My thoughts exactly. Good spot by the various doctors.

BBREF lists Correa with 5 years after this; 2029 and onward are team options.

#2 The solution is obvious. Buxton to SS when Correa is ready.

I mean, this is probably about as surprising as the annual Kerry Wood and Mark Prior injuries of the mid 2000s, no?

Two teams being scared off by the physical should have been a red flag. That one of those two teams was the METS should have been an SOS to every team in Major League Baseball to avoid any sort of multi-year deal with this guy.

You guys are totally right, other than the fact that it’s his other foot.

Mets doctors: There are two feet?

A's doctors: Ideally, sure, but what's his contract?

If any of this was the actual ankle in question during medical reviews the criticism might make sense. Unless one is going to say that his bad ankle has created unusual stress in his other foot.....this just seems like an injury that some people have

Thanks, I messed up and eyeballed quickly. So 5.6 years and roughly 190 million remaining.

Just an injury prone player that's been underperforming badly in the first year of his deal.

Twins are screwed with him.

8/11 Interesting to see if any medical reports made public. If ankle condition changes his gait, stance; how he pivots would like to see if causal connection.

I could see that effecting a knee or hip, but causing plantar....could be a reach, but I'm willing to be open minded about it.

Joe Kelly no doubt sends thoughts and prayers.

he had lost enough speed the last two seasons to be a concern during the contract talks. I cant recall how much but I think like half foot per second. Which is enough to be concerning. His extra bases taken numbers have gone down in those years as well.

Its hard to take these injury reports at face value for obvious reasons. Even if its not related to the previous degenerative condition, plantar fasciitis is pretty concerning by itself. Gee.

(1) We'll see how long it lasts, but Correa is already back in the lineup.
(2) Nothing spectacular but 231/341/449 in May, a 116 sOPS+

Finally, fertilizers help to reduce the environmental impact of agriculture. By using fertilizers, farmers are able to maximize their yields on existing farmland, which reduces the need to clear additional land for agriculture. https://fertilizerland.com/
