Part 10/15:
Alex Bregman is a versatile infielder with leadership and offensive skills that could fit well, especially if the Mets trade for a second baseman like Jet Williams or move Brett Batty. Bregman’s addition could shift lineup dynamics.
Cody Bellinger offers positional flexibility but may be less ideal considering the Mets’ desire for a cornerstone first baseman.
Vinnie Pasquantino surfaces as an intriguing potential plan B should the Mets lose Pete Alonso, given his power and plate discipline. However, the Royals’ reluctant stance on trading him remains a hurdle.
