While many of this offseason’s top free agents have signed and know where they will play baseball next season, one franchise player still remains on the market and it appears his former team is ready to move on. After signing Jesse Winker on Thursday, the New York Mets are reportedly ready to scrap their offseason plans to no longer bring back franchise first baseman Pete Alonso.
Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss why the Polar Bear has a right to be frustrated with how things have gone for him this free agency with the Mets, question the lack of interest in a player who has been so durable on the field and explore where he might ultimately end up if his time in Queens was truly over.
