The Twins star is having the worst season of his career. What's worse, he's approaching a dubious record, and it's most certainly related to his infamous ankle.
After an offseason of high drama, intrigue, two torn-up long-term contracts, endless speculation about his medicals and the long-term health of his right ankle, and a surprise return to the, the superstar shortstop has scuffled mightily in 2023. With just a few short weeks left in the regular season, Correa has a suboptimal .231/.312/.399 batting line with just 17 home runs in 124 games.
Peel back the factors producing these twin killings that are killing the Twins, and you'll gain a better understanding for why 2023 has been a year to forget for the two-time All-Star. Plantar fasciitis tends to linger, hampering a player over a longer period of time if they don't rest and recover. Correa's situation is no different. After that IL stint in May, Correa has more or less played every day, opting to push through the discomfort as the Twins push toward the postseason. It's an admirable approach, but one that has clearly limited Correa's explosiveness at the plate, and more importantly, on the basepaths.
