In addition to Alonzo’s situation, the burning question is whether the Mets can reallocate their assets effectively. Many speculate that if Alonzo departs, the Mets might pivot their focus towards acquiring players like Vladimir Guerrero Jr. from the Blue Jays. Such a move could involve significant trade pieces, but it may also yield a more dynamic long-term solution.
