The Giving Back Fund is a nonprofit that helps athletes and celebrities manage their charitable giving. They will host the “The Chasing M's Foundation” Charitable Fund. A GoFundMe spokesperson said they will transfer the donations that have come in since Hamlin's injury. Hamlin’s marketing representative, Jordon Rooney, said he and his family are humbled by the “tremendous support” and will communicate with donors over time. MLB – AP source: Correa spurns Mets, reaches $200M deal with Twins A person familiar with the negotiations says Carlos Correa has agreed to a $200 million, six-year contract that keeps him with the Minnesota Twins after failing to complete deals with the New York Mets and San Francisco Giants.
