Description
As speculation builds over whether First Baseman Pete Alonso will sign again with the New York Mets, the team's owner, billionaire Steve Cohen, is not just building a baseball team, he's building a brand.
The team is historically more associated with hardscrabble doggedness than the glitz of the Yankees. But with the recent addition of star player Juan Soto, and a push by Cohen to build a casino near CitiField, the longstanding culture of the Queens team could be on the verge of change.
