It’s time for the New York Mets to officially build around Pete Alonso

Pete Alonso is the sixth New York Mets player to win a National League Rookie of the Year Award. Wednesday night, Jacob deGrom is favored to win a second consecutive NL Cy Young Award, and that all sounds good for the Mets.

As good as it is, awards are always nice. They can’t be taken away. But every Mets fan wants more: the postseason and eventually hoisting that World Series trophy, as Alonso said Monday night.

“I’m just looking to try and be even better next year, and win more games, get to the playoffs and win a championship,” Alonso said.
