Newly signed Baltimore Orioles first baseman Pete Alonso chose jersey number 25 to honor his son born in 2025, as revealed at his introductory press conference on Thursday. The five-time All-Star, who agreed to a five-year, $155 million deal earlier this week after seven seasons with the Mets, expressed excitement about the team's championship potential.
First baseman Pete Alonso has opted out of the final year of his contract with the New York Mets, entering free agency after a strong 2025 season with 38 home runs and 126 RBIs. The Mets have begun preliminary talks with Alonso, but interest from teams like the Boston Red Sox, San Francisco Giants, and Philadelphia Phillies could lead to a competitive bidding war. Analysts expect a more lucrative market this offseason compared to last year, without a qualifying offer attached.
