The New York Mets have a hole to fill at first base. Will they re-sign Pete Alonso or pursue a trade for Vladimir Guerrero Jr. with the Toronto Blue Jays?
The New York Mets shocked the baseball world after agreeing to a historic $765 million contract with outfielder Juan Soto. President of baseball operations David Stearns' winter is far from over, though. Could he replace first baseman Pete Alonso with Toronto Blue Jays slugger Vladimir Guerrero Jr.?Toronto was one of five teams that tried luring Soto away from New York. Since the club's pursuit came up empty, Guerrero's long-term future with the Blue Jays appears to be in limbo.
'What's more, with the possibility of Pete Alonso leaving Queens in free agency this offseason as well, the Mets would have a better and younger replacement coming in with Vladdy to fill that void.'Williams also mentioned that locking down Guerrero in Queens for the long haul wouldn't be a problem thanks to Mets owner Steve Cohen's deep pockets and desire to win. But the situation with Alonso still hasn't been resolved.
