During the New York Mets' much-anticipated Amazin' Day fan fest on Saturday, owner Steve Cohen was very frustrated when he talked about the ongoing Pete Alonso

To hear New York Mets owner Steve Cohen tell it, he is not close to re-signing free agent first baseman Pete Alonso for one reason. “And a lot of it is, I don’t like the structures that he presented to us. I think it’s highly asymmetric against us, and I feel strongly about this,” Cohen told fans (and reporters) at Amazin Day on Saturday.

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. If Alonso ends up elsewhere, league sources expect the Mets to look for bullpen help and potentially add someone who can provide depth in the infield.

The New York Mets may be trying to replace righty power with righty power. Pat Ragazzo of Sports Illustrated reported Tuesday that the Mets are looking into a potential trade for Baltimore Orioles first baseman Ryan Mountcastle.

Former New York Mets general manager Steve Phillips says Pete Alonso would be "great fit" for the Toronto Blue Jays, who could also pursue Alex Bregman.
