Pete Alonso responded to reports his name was in trade discussions by proclaiming how proud he was to be a member of the Mets.It is, by the way, pretty hard to argue that the Mets have done anything even close to maximizing what analytics say should be Alonso’s prime.

Further contributing to the divide is that what you make of Alonso’s season depends — a lot — on which numbers you value., his batting average is down nearly 50 points from a .271 mark last season, and he is striking out more. Assuming he remains healthy, Alonso should post his third season with at least 40 home runs in his five years with the Mets.Baseball-Reference WAR has him on pace for a similar, perhaps slightly lower , output than last season . Ditto for Fangraphs .
