All MLB executives can now stop pursuing New York Mets Star Pete Alonso as they have just announced he is off the table.
Rival executives who have expressed interest in #Mets 1B Pete Alonso are «convinced» Alonso won't be traded so long as NYM are within five games of the final wild-card spot, per @BNightengale
As it stands right now, they are on pace to be at that suggested bench mark, as well as the team is only 1 game back of .500 on the season.
This has put a major damper on teams gunning for the slugging 1st baseman, the Jays included.
