Former Mets GM pitches five-year deal to keep Pete Alonso in Queens

Last winter, New York Mets slugger Pete Alonso tested free agency. But it did not go as planned, as his market was lukewarm at best, and there was a lack of long-term offers, something that he was looking for.

So, the five-time All-Star decided to sign a shorter deal and return to the Mets. The two sides agreed on a two-year, $54 million contract with an option after the first year.

Many expected Alonso to opt out of his contract and test the open market once again, and that is exactly what he is doing. He will be one of the biggest players on the free-agency list, and is hopeful the long-term contract will come this winter.
