During an appearance on the “The Chris Rose Rotation” podcast Monday, the Richmond native purported that Billy Beane’s prized stat undervalues his breed — first basemen — and that the Mets front office should look past Pete Alonso’s career 3.8 average and at everything else he brings to the table.

Despite David Stearns and Mets owner Steve Cohen's words of praise toward Pete Alonso, the destination of the first baseman remains open-ended.

The New York Mets have been trying to re-sign Pete Alonso, but as opening day approaches they still have not agreed to terms with him.

Whether or not Mets fans will have another opportunity to cheer on Pete Alonso is still very much up in the air.

Chris McMonigle says Pete Alonso is likely not coming back to Queens because the Mets simply don’t want him back, not even “at their price.”
