The free-agent shortstop’s history with the 2017 Houston Astros is enough to give the Dodgers pause when considering him as a replacement for Trea Turner.
SAN DIEGO — The scars have clearly not healed.
Correa is seen by fans as one of the more unrepentant members of that Astros team and any time his name is mentioned in connection with the Dodgers, social media swells with angry fans swearing they will drop allegiance to the team if Correa wears the Dodger uniform.
Roberts said there has been no internal discussion about “the potential narrative” that would come with Correa joining the Dodgers and he is not sure what the reaction might be. Correa’s talent is undeniable. The 28-year-old is a Gold Glove Award winner and a two-time All-Star who finished fifth in the AL MVP voting with the Astros in 2021. There are no indications that the Dodgers are actively pursuing Correa but his agent, Scott Boras, is certainly not willing to write off any potential bidder.
