Pete Alonso, the New York Mets' star first baseman, has not engaged in long-term contract discussions with the team, focusing only on his arbitration deal this winter. "Definitely, we welcomed conversation," Alonso said, indicating openness to discussing a new contract during the season despite no progress of a contract extension and the absence of an Opening Day deadline for negotiations. Amidst his uncertain future with the Mets, highlighted by his switch to notorious hard bargaining agent Scott Boras, Alonso has committed to donating $1,000 to animal shelters for every home run he hits in the 2024 season. This philanthropic effort is in collaboration with The Alonso Foundation, aiming to support animal welfare extensively.
