First baseman Pete Alonso has agreed to a five-year, $155 million contract with the Baltimore Orioles, leaving the New York Mets after becoming their all-time home run leader. The deal, reported during the Winter Meetings, marks the highest average annual value for a first baseman and strengthens Baltimore's lineup with right-handed power. The Mets, who did not make a formal offer, now face significant roster changes following departures of key players.
Updating earlier reports of Toronto Blue Jays' frontrunner status, the New York Mets and Los Angeles Dodgers have emerged alongside them as the top suitors for elite free agent outfielder Kyle Tucker. The 28-year-old, coming off a 4.5-WAR 2025 season, is open to short- or long-term deals as his market heats up ahead of spring training.
