Pete Alonso quickly announced his intentions to enter MLB free agency after the New York Mets were eliminated in 2025.

Three of the most highly-regarded free agents on the market, Alex Bregman, Kyle Schwarber and Pete Alonso continue to be linked to a number of top teams.

Bowden ranked Alonso as the top Boras client available this winter, and pointed out that among teams in the market for a first baseman, the New York Mets and Boston Red Sox look like the two most likely destinations for the soon-to-be 31-year-old.
