There have been conflicting reports about contract negotiations between Pete Alonso and the Blue Jays. Tim Healey said that the first baseman was “deep in contract talks” with Toronto, and Andy Martino said that those talks were “advancing.” Shi Davidi, however, said that the Blue Jays’ discussions with Alonso—and former Met Max Scherzer—were “not gaining momentum.”
The Mets made their signing of A.J. Minter official, and Jon Heyman shared the details of the contract.
Executives around the league see the Mets as a team that still needs to make a big move.
