Watching the Mets let Pete Alonso walk without even making a formal offer feels like a gut punch for fans who saw him become the face of Citi Field. What really twists the knife? The team might turn around and spend big on Cody Bellinger, showing they’re willing to splash cash—just not on their homegrown slugger. Even more confusing, they signed Jorge Polanco, a middle infielder, to help fill the gap at first base. It’s hard not to wonder: Is this about defense, or just picking favorites? How do you feel about the Mets’ handling of Alonso? #Sports #Baseball #Mets
