The New York Mets have made an offer to retain their free-agent first baseman, Pete Alonso, according to an online report by a former MLB star.

Meanwhile, the New York Mets have remained at a stalemate with first baseman Pete Alonso. Alonso has spent his entire career with the Mets, who drafted him in 2016. The four-time All-Star and 2019 NL Rookie of the Year has become a fan favorite — and for good reason.

The New York Mets landed Juan Soto this offseason. However, his arrival in Queens casts some doubt on Pete Alonso's return. The Mets could move Mark Vientos to first base to replace him, but then they would need to add a third baseman.
