Francisco Alvarez is in the perfect spot to cut down on strikeouts in 2026, thanks to the Mets’ new lineup. With Bo Bichette, Marcus Semien, and Jorge Polanco joining the team—each known for making solid contact without losing power—Alvarez has the best examples right in the clubhouse. He’s already shown he can adjust, slashing his whiff rate on fastballs after a midseason reset. If he keeps learning from these new teammates and gets his plate discipline back on track, we could see a whole new level from Alvarez next season. Mets fans, do you think this is his year to shine? #Sports #Baseball #Mets
