A former Mets' GM made a bold claim about whether New York will trade their top slugger this season.
Mets owner Steve Cohen has kept it coy when discussing his trade deadline plans for New York, who’s currently in fourth place in the NL East.
“Right now, if I had to guess, I don’t think it’s going to be as big of a market,” Scott added when asked about what sort of haul Alonso might bring the Mets if he was dealt at the trade deadline. “And oftentimes that happens with position players. You know, someone like Severino may have a bigger market, because everybody needs pitching, typically.
This is an interesting take from Scott, who served as the Mets' acting general manager between January 2021 and September 2021. While Alonso is only hitting .240 on the season, he has never been known for having a high batting average. And although Alonso’s home run numbers might be slightly down from where they’ve been in the past, he’s still on track to hit 35 homers this season.
