Correa risks losing fan support and team chemistry by missing critical games.

The coming months will show if Correa’s gamble pays off or backfires spectacularly, setting up either redemption or regret for his career. The timing and decision-making here could define how he's remembered in baseball history. Will this be seen as a bold move that saved him from ruin?
