Pete Alonso Claims He Hasn\'t Thought About Free Agency 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Mon Oct 21, 2024 12:20 pm

The New York Mets saw their postseason run end at the hands of the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 6 of the NLCS on Sunday night.

The club will quickly shift to the offseason with about a dozen free agents, headlined by Pete Alonso.

Alonso has 226 regular-season home runs, third on the franchise\'s all-time list.

\"I\'m really proud of what I was able to accomplish here,\" he said. \"I laid it out there every day. I played my heart out every day ... I\'m just thinking of the group. We\'ll cross that (free agent) bridge when we get there. I love this team. I love New York. I love playing in Queens. This group is really special.\"

Alonso played in every Mets game this year, hitting 34 home runs -- a career low -- though his 31 doubles were a career high. 

\"I haven\'t thought about anything that far,\" Alonso said of his pending free agency. \"I\'m just kind of shell shocked that the season is over. Once you get on this postseason run you don\'t really think it\'s going to end ever.\"
