Part 7/9:
The Mets are keen to make a significant addition to their roster as they aim to be competitive in the National League East. With other roster gaps to fill, the acquisition of a power bat at first base is crucial for their lineup's success. Analysts have dismissed the idea of solely relying on players like Brett Baty or Ronnie Mauricio to fill the void left by Alonso. There is a vital need for a seasoned player who can produce runs and support the current stars of the roster.
Rumors suggest that the Mets might also look into other names, including Alex Bregman, if they decide to secure a player on a shorter contract. However, they are likely focusing their efforts on Guerrero for immediate acquisition while keeping their eyes on the broader market landscape.
