“This is what I know: I know that Pete Alonso would like to stay with the Mets,” Cohen said. “I know that the Mets would like to keep Pete Alonso. I know that Scott Boras is an agent who likes to get top dollar in the market, and I‘m sure Pete Alonso would like to get top dollar in the market.
“How it plays out is anybody’s guess. My gut feeling is that there’s a better than even chance that Pete Alonso remains a New York Met.”
Mets president of baseball operations David Stearns has shared his thoughts as well.
“There is no magic formula,” Stearns said. “There’s no equation that spits out what all of that is for us. There is judgment involved. There’s evaluating the market involved and then we’ll see how this process goes throughout the offseason.”
