.KPRC2Ari talks to Carlos Correa about Jeremy Peña, his offseason, the Twins, and his future TV broadcast career
No, they were all the same, other than we did an MRI on the ankle, and we did the X-rays before. This past offseason, you got to do a bit of TV. I thought you’re pretty good at it! What’s it like to learn a different side of the game and do TV? It was fun, it was fun.
I might be coming for your job. It was fun, but it’s not where I want to be come October. With the Minnesota Twins having a good chance with a core group of talented players to win the AL Central in postseason baseball again, that’s my goal moving forward. And TV can wait until I retire. I thought it was interesting when you talked about how contracts are done. You need to have OPS, it’s a little different than old school -- if you have to do TV at any point, what kind of thing do you think you can bring that other people may not bring? It’s just the inside look of how players think inside the clubhouse. Baseball has changed so much, and there’s still that old-school mentality lingering around. Batting average, home runs, RBIs -- it doesn’t matter. If you go to a big league clubhouse and they start talking about average home runs and RBIs, nobody is going to take you seriously. There’s so much more to the game, so much more to data, so much more to stats that you can look at to define how good a player is than home runs and RBIs. Just the inside look at how front offices think nowadays, why they give out the contracts and the way the process works. You get a lot of credit from Jeremy Peña, prepping him a little bit for the role he had. What did you see in him when you first got to see him in his run? I was very impressed with his glove, and the way he moved shortstop. I’m very impressed with his physique. His swing developed throughout the regular season and during the last two weeks of the season, the hitting coaches worked with him his swing got in sync right away and it looked really good. And that translated into the postseason and that’ll translate into his career. The best of Jeremy Peña is yet to come because he clicked those last couple of weeks into the season into the playoffs and I think he’s gonna do it for the rest of his career.
