Pete's Pride vs. Payroll: Mets' $150M DH or Bust!
Update: 2025-11-06
Description
BT & Sal dive into the "DH or Done" dilemma surrounding Pete Alonso's free agency, arguing that the Mets cannot let the star first baseman hold their crucial offseason hostage. Sal insists the Mets must offer Alonso a "perfect" deal—a long-term contract (he suggests 5 years, $150M) only if he agrees to transition immediately to a Designated Hitter role to improve the team's defense. Tierney agrees he needs to be an affordable DH, but suspects Alonso's pride in playing first base will lead him to walk away for less money elsewhere. They both conclude that if Alonso and his agent, Scott Boras, drag the process out or refuse the DH mandate, the Mets must move on immediately to aggressively build a World Series-caliber roster
