New York Mets’ first goal player Pete Alonso told journalists after the final of the season of Sunday that he would withdraw from his contract and would again test the free agent market before the 2026 season.
“I love playing here … Every day, it was a pleasure to come and work and put orange and blue,” said Alonso after the dishes were eliminated eliminatory series with 4-0 defeat against the Miami Marlins host. “I really enjoyed it and I was only full of gratitude. Nothing is guaranteed, but we will see what is going on. I loved being a Met. I hope they enjoyed me the same thing.”
Alonso, 30, spent the seven years of his career in major leagues with the dishes, who selected him in the second round of the 2016 MLB draft of Florida. He posted enormous sustainability, playing in at least 152 games in all except in the 2020 campaign, except in the 162 competitions in 2024 and 2025.
He rebounded after a pair of years down in 2025, recording career rects with an average of the stick of .272 and 41 doubles, which led the National League. Its 126 products produced were the best best in the majors.
Alonso entered the free agency last winter, but did not conclude an agreement before February 5, when he signed a $ 54 million contract over two years with the dishes. There are $ 24 million on the contract for 2026, but given its recent robust campaign, this wins much more this winter.
All-star five times, including each season since 2022, Alonso was the recruit of the NL of the year in 2019. The 264 Alonso career circuits (including 38 this season) are a franchise record.
