Pete Alonso predicted to return to New York Mets on five-year $125 million deal

The New York Mets are facing significant changes after losing 14 players from their playoff roster. First baseman Pete Alonso, a four-time All-Star, is currently a free agent after a successful six-year career with the team. Recent predictions suggest Alonso may return to the Mets on a five-year, $125 million deal. This comes after he turned down a larger seven-year offer last season, but he could secure a higher annual salary with a shorter contract. The Mets are also pursuing outfielder Juan Soto, but predictions indicate he may sign with the Boston Red Sox instead. This could open the door for Alonso's return to New York.
