Mets Fans: Alonzo's Future in Jeopardy
Mets fans have been in a whirlwind of emotions regarding the future of Pete Alonzo, the team's star first baseman. Recent reports indicate that the New York Mets may be preparing for life without Alonzo, particularly as discussions for his new contract stall.
Recent Developments
About two weeks ago, the Mets reportedly offered Alonzo a three-year contract worth $90 million, which breaks down to an average annual value (AAV) of $30 million. This offer seemed to aim at keeping Alonzo in New York for the foreseeable future. However, just a week ago, Alonzo made a counteroffer to the Mets with a short-term deal—details about which remain undisclosed but were sent exclusively to the Mets.
