New York Mets star Pete Alonso has again been mentioned as a possible trade target for the Houston Astros.
have become one of the hottest teams in baseball. They have won seven straight games and have evened up their record at 40-40.
Dana Brown, Houston's general manager, may have to consider getting aggressive. If his team is going to continue playing this hot, a big trade could push them into serious contention. "However, after they jumped back into the wild-card race, execs now feel it’s more unlikely than likely that they’ll trade Alonso, unless they are overwhelmed with a trade offer from a team such as the Astros or Mariners."Right now, the Astros could use an upgrade at first base. They could also use more pop in their lineup. Alonso would check both of those boxes.
Obviously, the biggest question becomes, would the Astros be interested in a potential half-year rental?
