According to Jon Heyman of the New York Post, the Cincinnati Reds could emerge as a suitor for New York Mets slugger Pete Alonso.

Pete Alonso no longer has leverage in contract negotiations with his original team, the New York Mets, and may accept what they offer him, Jim Bowden predicts.

The New York Mets have multiple players who call Scott Boras their agent. But according to one New York radio host, there is one to blame for Pete Alonso’s free agency stalemate.

The Pete Alonso free-agency saga has taken an unexpected turn as a dark-horse candidate has emerged for the four-time All-Star.

It is conceivable that Baty and Acuña alone could replace Alonso's home runs, which is to say nothing of what they stand to gain from their new center fielder. That is Jose Siri, who hit as many homers on his own last season (18) as the Mets got from all their center fielders.

The Blue Jays "appear to be the most serious about signing" veteran right-hander Max Scherzer, according to MLB.com. Scherzer, 40, was limited to just nine starts last season because of physical issues.

The only reason we’re having this conversation two weeks after the Mets' pivot is that Pete Alonso has not yet found a home with another team.

So, beyond revealing an exhaustion from negotiating with Alonso’s camp, Cohen’s comments confirmed a couple of other matters. One, in a world without Alonso returning to Flushing, the Mets may add more pieces. Two, the Mets are at least acting like they care about how much they spend.

Report: Cincinnati Reds Interested in Signing Four-Time All-Star Pete Alonso. Alonso has been a star for the New York Mets and could sign a short-team deal with the Reds according to reports.

Free agent Pete Alonso will return to the New York Mets and the fire his agent, Scott Boras, for failing to deliver on promises, a WFAN radio host predicts.

With his options dwindling in free agency, it’s long past time for Pete Alonso to decide what is most important: his legacy or his contract.
