Alonso went 2-for-4 with a solo home run Tuesday against the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
Alonso took Twins right-hander Bailey Ober yard to give the Mets a 1-0 lead in the first inning. The star first baseman has thrived in the early going while batting behind Francisco Lindor and Juan Soto. Through his first 73 plate appearances of the campaign, Alonso is slashing a robust .356/.466/.729 with five homers, seven doubles, 20 RBI and 11 runs scored.

Alonso went 3-for-3 with a double, a home run and three RBI in Friday's 7-6 win over the A's.
EDGE Analysis
The Polar Bear's eighth-inning solo shot off Jose Leclerc gave the Mets their final run of the night, and crucial insurance given Edwin Diaz stumbled in the ninth trying to protect a three-run lead. Alonso is one of the hottest hitters in the majors right now, and over the last 10 games he's batting .444 (16-for-36) with six doubles, four homers and 18 RBI.

Alonso went 2-for-4 with two doubles and four RBI in Tuesday's 10-5 win over Miami.
EDGE Analysis
Alonso registered his first RBI of the game in the third inning, and he proceeded to drive in three more runs on a bases-clearing double in the sixth frame to give the Mets a four-run lead. Alonso has logged two hits in each of his last three games and has recorded at least four RBI in three games this season. Alonso has gone 12-for-30 with four walks, five doubles, three home runs and 15 RBI over his last eight outings.

Alonso went 1-for-3 with a walk, a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Friday's 5-0 win over the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
Alonso did damage early, lifting a two-run blast off Kevin Gausman in the first inning to provide all the offense the Mets needed in this win. Alonso started the year 1-for-9 with three walks over the first three games, but he's logged six extra-base hits -- including three homers -- and 10 RBI over his last four contests. The first baseman should play pretty close to every day when healthy, as he got into all 162 games in 2024.

Alonso went 3-for-4 with a home run, four RBI, two runs scored and a walk in Wednesday's 6-5 extra-inning win over Miami.
EDGE Analysis
After doubling to plate a run in the first inning, Alonso blasted a three-run homer in the eighth inning to tie the game at 4-4. The star slugger is off to a fast start at the plate, slashing .286/.423/.667 with two long balls, two doubles and eight RBI over 21 at-bats. As long as he's hitting directly behind Francisco Lindor and Juan Soto, Alonso should see a great deal of RBI opportunities in 2025.

Alonso went 2-for-4 with a grand slam, a walk and an additional run scored in Monday's 10-4 win over Miami.
EDGE Analysis
Alonso broke this one wide open in the fifth inning, taking Marlins right-hander Cal Quantrill deep to plate four runs and give the Mets a 6-1 lead. Monday marked the first home run and RBI of the young season for the star slugger, who has gone 3-for-14 (.231) with four walks through four games thus far. With Francisco Lindor and Juan Soto batting in front of him, Alonso should see plenty of RBI chances in 2025.

Alonso went 1-for-4 with a walk and a three-run home run in Wednesday's Grapefruit League game against the Astros.
EDGE Analysis
He crushed a pitch from Miguel Castro over the left-field fence in the sixth inning. It was Alonso's first long ball this spring, but he also has four doubles among his nine hits while batting .220 (9-for-41) with a 7:8 BB:K. The slugging first baseman appears to be getting his timing down just in time for Opening Day.

Alonso agreed to terms on a two-year, $54 million contract with the Mets on Wednesday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
It was expected that Alonso would move on from the Mets after he reportedly rejected a three-year deal worth roughly $70 million, but an apparent change of heart will keep the 30-year-old slugger in New York for the immediate future as the team's everyday first baseman. His new deal will pay him $30 million in 2025 and includes an opt-out after the first season, which could allow him to enter free agency once again next winter.

The Mets are not expected to re-sign Alonso, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Mets made what Sherman describes as a "last-ditch effort" to retain Alonso by recently offering him a three-year contract in the $68 to $70 million range, which the first baseman unsurprisingly rejected. It's always possible there's a change of heart, but all signs now point to the Mets moving on from Alonso, who is third on their all-time home run list with 226. Currently, the plan is to shift Mark Vientos to first base and have Brett Baty, Ronny Mauricio (knee) and Luisangel Acuna compete for the third base job.

Alonso rejected the Mets' one-year, $21.05 million qualifying offer Tuesday, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Alonso's rejection of the offer was a formality, as he is in line for a big payday this winter. The Mets are interested in retaining the first baseman, but should he sign elsewhere, the club will receive a draft pick as compensation.
