Part 7/9:
Potential Landing Spots for a Departing Alonzo
The scenario where Alonzo ends up departing the Mets cannot be ruled out. In that case, several teams could be primed to snag him. Notably, the New York Yankees, who might see Alonzo as a weapon against their cross-town rivals, could prove a formidable destination. Other teams, like the Red Sox and the Astros, while having needs at first base, might also feature in the bidding for Alonzo's services depending on their own market movements.
The Nationals stand out as a potential dark horse candidate, looking to rejuvenate their roster with emerging talent—Alonzo could fit into their long-term plans as they rebuild. Teams like the Giants and the Cubs may also emerge based on evolving roster needs.
