Part 4/6:
While the Mets continue to engage in dialogues with Alonzo throughout the offseason, they are also exploring contingency plans in case a deal doesn't materialize. Among potential alternatives is Christian Walker, a first baseman known for his offensive skills, who has emerged as a candidate should the Mets and Alonzo part ways.
Additionally, the organization has been considering the flexibility offered by other players. There’s been mention of moving Mark Vientos to first base, despite his success at third base. This indicates a strategic willingness to adapt positions based on the overall team needs.
