Why Carlos Correa turned down Bad Bunny’s WBC insurance offer
NY Post
Bad Bunny offered to pay Carlos Correa’s insurance for the World Baseball Classic.
Major League Baseball, the Astros and his agent, Scott Boras, told the Astros infielder to think again.
“They all told me it was a bad idea,” Correa told The Athletic. “They all told me the insurance company that was proposed to me had cases where they were not paying players back. Since it was not approved by MLB, not approved by the organization and not approved by my agent, I could not sign my life away with something that three people that I trust are telling me not to do.”
Correa, one of several players not cleared to play in the tournament, still expressed his appreciation for Bad Bunny’s offer.
“It means a lot that he’s that involved,” Correa said of his countryman. “He tried to do everything possible … I’m deeply grateful that he tried that hard.”
Bad Bunny, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, offered to pay the insurance for Mets star Francisco Lindor, who was also denied by National Financial Partners, which is the insurer for the WBC.
