Mets have Pete Alonso, other free agency questions to answer after Juan Soto sweepstakes win
NY Post
DALLAS — Juan Soto is headed to the Mets on a record 15-year contract worth $765 million in a muscle flex that is sure to resonate throughout the game and beyond.
A few questions to consider in the wake of the historic contract:
It could very well mean he is headed to the Yankees, who have plenty of money to spend after missing on Soto and a need for additional power and a first baseman.
Alonso, 30, had a down year by his standards last season, posting a .240/.329/.459 slash line with 34 homers and 88 RBIs.
It’s certainly not the walk year he wanted after turning down a proposed contract extension the previous season that The Post’s Joel Sherman reported would cover seven years and pay him $158 million.
Alonso has repeatedly said he wants to remain with the Mets, but those chances may have diminished with Soto’s contract.
The Giants lost another game and that is no longer news, although the specifics and particulars of this latest loss are specifically and particularly galling, as far as sameness and also innovativeness.
