Munetaka Murakami is enticing but the NY Mets must prioritize keeping Pete Alonso

To say New York Mets fans have a collective sour taste in their mouth from 2025 would be the understatement of the century. But there is one guy that I think we all hope to see return, despite the misery that just ensued.

Pete Alonso is actually one of the few Mets who cannot be accused of delivering such misery. He completed the Mets' season from hell with a .272 average, .871 OPS, and 126 RBIs.

It's easy to get distracted by the shiny new toy in the room. It's easy to assume that the grass on the other side is just a little bit greener.
