Since the Mets signed Juan Soto for a record-breaking $765 million contract in December 2024, they have taken a cautious approach with Pete Alonso. MLB insider Will Sammon indicated that the team's strategy for Alonso contrasts with their earlier aggressive pursuit of Soto.

Weeks after Juan Soto signed a monster 15-year, $765 million contract with the Mets, there was still a buzz among his new teammates.

The New York Mets are still unsure if Pete Alonso will return to the team for 2025 and beyond. That could open the door for this first baseman to be traded.

The New York Mets have been steady in their efforts to bring Pete Alonso back to Queens. However, There has been no deal yet and that could change as spring training is right around the corner.

It’s been 10 days since Mets owner Steve Cohen got “brutally honest” about contract negotiations with first baseman Pete Alonso. Since then, the team has reopened negotiations with Alonso but the four-time All-Star remains on the free agent market.

Pete Alonso remains a free agent despite strong interest from various teams, including the New York Mets. SNY insider Andy Martino reports that the Mets are leaving room for a potential deal with Alonso by managing their budget strategically.

It is arguably not the shrewdest baseball decision, but I contend a reunion between the Mets and Alonso is the best move for both sides.
