Down in the minor leagues this past season, a bromance bloomed between New York Mets farmhands Peter Alonso and Jeff McNeil. Each had breakout seasons in Double-A which continued into Triple-A. Although Alonso was already regarded as a high-ranking prospect, few saw him putting together such a thunderous campaign.
The two are clearly friends and to see them play beside each other at Citi Field would make many Mets fans happy. Alonso has the potential to set a new Mets home run record while McNeil could continue to develop into one of the best contact hitters in the game.
