Part 2/7:
Alonzo, who has been on the radar for a long time, is now considered the best free agent hitter available. The discussions around him have intensified, especially after the Mets’ recent offer of a three-year, $70 million deal, which has reportedly led Alonzo and his camp, represented by Scott Boris, to explore other options—the Blue Jays being a prominent candidate.
The Blue Jays have made it clear that they’re not finished with their roster overhaul, and Alonzo would be a significant addition, adding much-needed power to the batting lineup, returning it to its previous heights alongside stars like Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Bo Bichette. The hosts express confidence that Alonzo’s addition could reshape the Blue Jays' offensive strategy.
