Mets on Brink of Losing Star First Baseman Alonso to Blockbuster Deal

The New York Mets are bracing for the possibility of losing Pete Alonso, their star first baseman, to free agency this winter. If he signs with another National League team on a massive five-year, $150 million contract, it would be a devastating blow to the organization.

To close the gap on top teams in the NL, the Mets must make some crucial moves, including re-signing Alonso if possible. After missing the postseason, the team may become desperate and risk overpaying for other players or trading away key assets.

Just Baseball's Ryan Finkelstein recently predicted that Alonso would return to Queens on a huge deal. With Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s new contract at $35 million per season in mind, Alonso's annual salary of $30 million seems reasonable. The Mets may be able to sweeten the offer by deferring some of the payment, but ultimately, it remains to be seen if they can convince him to stay.

Given Alonso's immense value to the team, losing him would be a disaster for the Mets' chances of competing in the NL. With the necessary funds available, the team has shown willingness to spend big in the past; however, their reluctance to commit to Alonso last winter may have been a sign of hesitation rather than a lack of interest.

As the offseason heats up, it's likely that Alonso will remain in Queens for the next few seasons, possibly longer. The Mets' decision on re-signing him could make or break their chances of contention in the coming years.
 
🤔 The Mets gotta do something to keep Alonso 🙌, he's a game-changer at first base and his loss would be huge ⚾️. I think they should go all out to re-sign him if possible 💸, even if it means breaking the bank, because it's worth it for the competitive edge they need in the NL 📈. 150 million dollars might seem crazy, but considering Guerrero Jr.'s new contract and Alonso's value, it's a pretty reasonable offer 🤑. The thing is, the Mets showed willingness to spend big last offseason, so why not now? 😬 If they can convince him to stay, it'll be a huge win for the team 🔜.
 
I'm still salty about how the Mets dropped the ball with Alonso last winter 🤕. I mean, 30 million a year is a steal for that guy's production on the field! The team was being all cautious and whatnot, but now they're scrambling to keep him. If they can lock him down with a deal like $30 mil/yr + deferral, he'll be good to go 🤑. Losing him would be a huge blow, and I'm thinking Citi Field will see more Mets fans than ever if Alonso signs elsewhere 😔
 
Ugh, can't believe what's happening to our Mets 🤦‍♂️! They're already struggling after missing the playoffs and now they're gonna lose Alonso if he goes to another team? That's like losing a piece of their heart. I remember when he first came up with that epic 60-home run season 😲... it was amazing. The team needs him to stay, especially with how close they are to other top teams in the NL.

I'm not sure what's going on behind closed doors, but if the Mets want to be a contender again, they gotta make it happen. Giving Alonso a huge deal isn't too much to ask, considering he's a superstar 🤷‍♂️. And with all these young players coming up through the system, it's not like they're broke or anything.

Fingers crossed that Ryan Finkelstein is right and Alonso stays put 🤞... it'd be awesome for the team (and us fans) to have him back in Queens.
 
I feel like the Mets gotta do whatever it takes to keep Alonso, you know? He's been a beast at the plate and his presence is HUGE for this team. If they can offer him something close to what Vladimir Jr. got, I think he'll stay. But if not... man, that would be a disaster. They'd be putting all their hopes on other players and it just wouldn't be the same. Alonso's value to this team goes beyond just his stats - he's a leader and a game-changer. 🤔
 
💡 I think the Mets have to step up their game if they want to keep Alonso 🤔. $30 million is a decent salary considering his skills and stats, but it's not crazy either 💸. If they can offer him more than that without breaking the bank, he'll be a hard sell for other teams. The fact that Finkelstein thinks he'll stay puts pressure on the Mets to make an offer 📈. They need to weigh their options carefully and consider what's best for the team in the long run. Losing Alonso would be a huge blow, but I think they can find a way to keep him if they're willing to make it happen 💪.
 
omg i think the mets are being super reasonable with alonso's contract lol its not like they're trying to overspend or anything. $150 mil for 5 yrs is still a lot but if vladimir guerrerro jrs new deal can get that kinda cash, why should alonso be any different? and yeah they did show willingness to spend big in the past so this isnt some crazy overpay move. i actually think its good for them to make some moves and close that gap with top teams... Alonso is key to their success btw
 
🤔 this is gonna be a long offseason if the Mets can't come to terms with Alonso 🤑 30 mil ain't that much when u consider his value to the team... they gotta make it worth his while, deferring payments or throwin in some extras would show he's still the priority 😏
 
"Believe you can and you're halfway there." 💪🔥

The Mets are indeed facing a tough situation with Alonso's future uncertain. If they want to close the gap between themselves and top teams, they need to think outside the box and make smart moves. Deferring payment or exploring alternative offers might be a good starting point. It's also possible that Alonso will end up staying put, but for now, it's anyone's guess. The team needs to trust in their ability to make decisions that will benefit them in the long run.
 
omg yaaas i think alonso is gonna stay with the mets 🤞🏼👊 he's been a game changer for them and losing him would be a huge blow. they gotta make it worth his while, 150 million over five years is a lot but if he stays they can still compete with the big boys 💸🔥
 
Ugh 🤕 just saw this news and I'm already freaking out about the Mets losing Alonso 😱 they can't afford to lose that superstar first baseman, especially with how far off they are from contending right now 🚨 Alonso's value is so huge, it's like they're saying goodbye to their chances of making a deep playoff run 💔
 
OMG, can you even imagine the Mets without Pete Alonso? 🤯 They need to get him signed ASAP or risk losing their star player to another team! 💸 I mean, $150 million for 5 years is a lot, but if they sweeten the deal with some payment deferrals, maybe they can convince him to stay. ⏰ The Mets have shown they're willing to spend big in the past, so it's not like they're not serious about keeping Alonso. They need to prioritize their team and make this happen! 💪
 
🤕 the mets are so done 🚫 they cant even keep pete alonso without giving him a max contract 💸 i mean what else can they offer at this point? 🤔 its like theyre trying to put all their eggs in one basket and hope it works out 💥 but newsflash: baseball is a players market now 📈 alonsos value just went up with guerrerros new deal 🤑 the mets need to step up their game or risk getting left behind 👀
 
Man, can you believe it? Pete Alonso is literally the heart and soul of that Mets team... I mean, remember when David Wright was rocking it at first base for them? Alonso's value to the team can't be overstated, he's basically a game-changer. And now they're worried about losing him to another team on a huge deal? That would be devastating, for real! They gotta make some moves and convince him to stay, or else... I don't know what else to say, it's like when Johan Santana left the Mets in 2014 🤦‍♂️. They can't afford to lose Alonso, not now that they've got a chance to compete with the likes of the Dodgers and Padres. Fingers crossed he stays in Queens for a while longer 💯
 
I'm kinda surprised they're even considering letting Alonso go 🤯 I mean, he's been a beast at first base since his debut and has helped turn that side of the roster into a powerhouse. 150 million over 5 yrs is still a lot, but it's not crazy rich if you think about it... especially if they can deferring some payment like Ryan Finkelstein said 💸
 
I'm telling you, Alonso is worth every penny of that $30 million per year 💸. I mean, have you seen his stats? The guy's a beast at first base! And yeah, Guerrero Jr.'s contract might seem big, but let's be real, he's not even in the same league as Alonso 🤣. The Mets need to step up and offer him a deal that reflects his value or risk losing him for good. I'm all for deferring payments or adding some incentives to make it more palatable for Alonso, but come on, the guy deserves top dollar ⏰. And can we talk about how this plays out in the offseason? It's gonna be crazy! 🤯
 
OMG, this is crazy! 🤯 If Pete Alonso leaves, I don't think the Mets can even think about making a deep postseason run 📦💔. Alonso is like his main man, you know? He's that superstar who makes everyone else look good on the team. Like, remember when Luke Skywalker was the chosen one in Star Wars? That's what Alonso is to the Mets ⚾️👽.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s new contract is a benchmark for now, but I think $30 million per year is still pretty fair for Alonso 🤑. The Mets need to make a move and commit big time or risk losing him for good 😅. It's like when Tony Stark made that deal with Ultron – the Mets can't let Alonso fall into another team's hands 🤖💣.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Alonso will stick around, though! 💪 The guy is a fan favorite, and it would be so sad to see him go ⚔️😢. Maybe the Mets just need to get their offer game stronger? Like when the Avengers worked together in Infinity War – that's what the Mets need right now 🤝🌟!
 
🤔 alonso is worth every penny 🤑 i mean, the guy's been killing it at the plate and his value is only gonna go up from here 🚀 plus, he's a met and we love our mets 💛 the team has shown they're willing to spend big when it matters most, so why not splurge on alonso? 💸 it's better to be safe than sorry and if he signs elsewhere, that's just too bad for us ⚾️
 
I'm low-key hoping Pete Alonso sticks around with the Mets 🤞. I get why they'd want to keep him, he's a game-changer at first base and has been clutch when it matters most. But if they offer him a huge deal like $150 million over 5 years, it might be tough for them to justify that price tag 🤑. Alonso is already making bank at $30 million per year, so deferring some of the payment or adding more years could make the deal more attractive to both parties 💸. Plus, the Mets just spent a ton on other free agents last offseason, maybe they were trying to test the waters? Either way, I think Alonso will end up staying in Queens for the long haul 🌆
 
OMG 🤯 I'm literally freaking out over this news!!! Alonso is like the heart and soul of our team! Losing him would be a total disaster 😱 I mean, think about it, the Mets are already struggling to keep up with the likes of the Braves and Dodgers... if they lose their best player, they're basically done 🤦‍♂️

I don't know how much longer the Mets can afford to wait for Alonso's contract extension to get sorted out 🤑 They need him now more than ever! And let's be real, $150 million is a small price to pay for that kind of talent 💸 I'm rooting so hard for them to come up with a deal that'll keep Alonso in Queens forever 🌃
