NY Post: Mets preparing for big player exodus to World Baseball Classic. "With as many as 12 Mets players headed to the World Baseball Classic, which will take place from March 8-21, manager Buck Showalter is bracing for a potentially abbreviated look at the team he plans to deploy on Opening Day...Pete Alonso, Jeff McNeil, Brooks Raley and Adam Ottavino (USA) Francisco Lindor, Edwin Diaz and Michael Perez (Puerto Rico) Eduardo Escobar, Jose Quintana and Omar Narvaez (Venezuela); and minor league pitchers Cameron Opp (Great Britain) and Claudio Scotti (Italy) all will be in the WBC mix. Rosters for the event will be announced Thursday."
MLB Trade Rumors looked at Pete Alonso's possible extension, comparing him to Matt Olsen. They think "perhaps something in the range of eight years and $180.5MM (including this season’s $14.5MM salary) could be mutually agreeable."
