Part 2/7:
Leading the talk of the off-season is Pete Alonso, a major player who currently finds himself without a designated home team. With multiple teams expressing interest, particularly the Toronto Blue Jays and the New York Mets, the future of Alonso remains a "fluid situation." Alonso stands out as a top power hitter, characterized by his impressive record of 220 home runs since entering the league, along with a strong OPS+ of 134.
Interestingly, the market for players has exhibited quirks; historically, even high-profile players like Cody Bellinger have signed late in the off-season. With rumors swirling around Alonso accepting a short-term deal with opt-outs, his situation may reflect similar dynamics seen in past negotiations.
