NY Post:

MLB.com:

  • One potential trade candidate from each team - Pete Alonso is the Mets' candidate - "Alonso and the Mets will likely discuss a potential extension, but if the two sides are far apart in those conversations, New York could look to deal Alonso rather than risk losing him for nothing more than a Draft pick next winter."
