Watch: Scott Boras showers Carlos Correa with an embarrassing amount of compliments
Find someone who talks about you like superagent Scott Boras talks about his client, free-agent shortstop Carlos Correa.
On Wednesday at the MLB general manager meetings, Boras pumped up Correa, comparing his talents to the lasting power of famous designer brands like Dior, Hermes, Louis IV and Prada.

“You’re the Dior of defense. The Hermes of hitting. The Louis IV of leadership. The Prada of the postseason. It’s a one-stop-shop for a championship designer.” pic.twitter.com/Bm8ijCdmu7

While Boras’ loving rant is clearly a callback to Correa’s comments back in September about possibly re-signing with the Minnesota Twins, it’s cute nonetheless.
Ranked as the top player available on the free-agent market by The Athletic’s Keith Law, Correa is likely to come away with a long and hefty payday. According to Law, Correa has earned a deal worth “$30 million-plus a year” that pays him into his mid-30s.
Correa, who signed a three-year, $105.3 million contract with the Minnesota Twins last offseason, triggered his opt-out on Monday to become a free agent again. While the San Francisco Giants, Los Angeles Dodgers and Chicago Cubs are rumored to be interested in Correa, the Twins are hoping to keep him around, especially after already showing a commitment to the two-time All-Star.
“It’s pretty clear to us he likes us,” Twins president of baseball operations Derek Falvey said, via The Athletic’s Dan Hayes. “If there’s a way to find a match, that’s going to be something we’re going to try to explore.”
Correa batted .291/.366/.467 with 22 homers and 64 RBI in 136 games for the Twins, but he doesn’t come without drawbacks.
The 28-year-old has had trouble staying healthy. Correa missed 11 games in May with a finger injury and another nine games in June due to COVID-19 protocols. Over his career, Correa has missed significant time dealing with leg and back injuries.
There’s also the continued stigma surrounding his connection with the 2017 Houston Astros cheating scandal. However, Boras dismissed the perception that teams like the Dodgers might shy away from signing Correa because of it, saying he doesn’t “think anybody cares about what happened years ago.”
“With their owners, they have to win and it’s not easy to win,” Boras said. “You can’t let anything get in the way.”
