Part 3/7:
Alonzo, represented by Scott Boras, reportedly is seeking a longer-term contract that would pay him significantly more. As the market for first basemen has shrunk this offseason, Alonzo, who is seen as primarily a slugger with limited defensive and base-running upside, could find himself in a precarious bargaining position. The Mets need to weigh their long-term commitments carefully, especially if they look to pursue players like Vladimir Guerrero Jr. next offseason.
