What are the most recent comps for 7-10 year contracts for first basemen? Even Freddie Freeman's deal in LA isn't that long. (And we all know he's a far better player than Pete)

Freeman was 32 years old, and he got 6 years.

Alonso will turn 29 in December.

As I write that, I see that Alonso is not eligible for Free Agency until after next season. I had assumed based on how everybody was talking he was a free agent after this year. He's arbitration eligible next season.

Might be worth the Mets waiting it out and seeing if he regresses next year or not.

Either he has a career year next year, like Judge did in his arbitration season, and his price goes up immensely, or his batting average and strikeout ratio continues to get worse next year and serves as a gauge of how he's going to age into the future.

I know Pete will be a bit younger than Freddie was when he signed with LA, but Im not sure if I see someone offering him 7-10 years, unless, as you say, he has a monster year in '24. There is real speculation that the Mets might trade him this off-season, which I'm not as opposed to as many (most?) Mets fans, depending what they can get back in terms of prospects...

there is a report out by Sports Illustrated Pat Ragazzo that they are discussion extension but they are far apart.
It is reported that Pete wants a 10 year extension

That's it for Buck. I'm happy with that decision; his lineups were often infuriatingly bad and his bullpen (mis-)management was, well, typical.

Who do you think will be on their interview list?
