Peter Alonso among Top 10 first base prospects in baseball

Mets first base prospect Peter Alonso, who will be in major league camp during Spring Training, is No. 7 on MLB.com's list of the Top 10 first base prospects in baseball.

MLB.com's Jonathan Mayo said Alonso is the "highest riser" on the list, and wrote the following:

"Alonso entered his first full season of pro ball nowhere near the Top 10 first basemen list, even though he had hit very well during his summer debut following his second-round selection by the Mets out of the University of Florida. But then he showed that wasn't an aberration and hit his way to Double-A, with very solid hit and power tools showing up.
