Part 4/8:
Pete Alonzo's Situation
While Verdugo's interest stirs discussions, the focus remains heavily on Pete Alonzo's future. Alonzo's camp, led by agent Scott Boras, is actively exploring contract offers for the power-hitting first baseman. Reports suggest Alonzo is seeking a deal comparable to Prince Fielder's nine-year, $214 million contract. Such an aspiration raises eyebrows considering Alonzo's middling production in the previous season.
