Mets: What to do at first base with Dominic Smith and Pete Alonso in 2021
How will the New York Mets manage 2021 with Pete Alonso and Dominic Smith both on the roster? It is very rare for the New York Mets to have an “embarrassment of riches” at any position. With both Dominic Smith and Pete Alonso, that is exactly what they have at first base.

Final Score: Mets 5, Rays 2—Lugo and Alonso shine in victory
Brad Penner-USA TODAY Sports Alonso’s offense supports an excellent start from Seth Lugo. The Rays and Mets exchanged solar home runs in the second inning, as Willy Adames opened the scoring with a home run off of Seth Lugo, and Robinson Cano responded in the bottom of the frame by sneaking his 10th home run of the season inside the left field foul pole off of Rays’ starter Blake Snell. The Mets had a chance for more in the inning, but Kevin Kiermaier made an excellent throw to nail Pete Alonso at the plate on a Jeff McNeil single to end the inning. Lugo was excellent thereafter,...

Mets 5, Rays 2: So, this Pete Alonso guy...
Brad Penner-USA TODAY Sports Rays narrowly miss winning the AL East tonight. In classic close-scoring Rays action (at least for the first half), this game kept us on our toes until the very end, never entirely sure which way it would go. While the Rays ultimately lost, there were several points where a turnaround seems possible right up until the last couple of innings. Off the hop it was pretty clear that the starting pitchers were evenly matched right out of the gate. The Rays might have been able to best Mets ace Jacob deGrom in Monday’s (equally close scoring) outing, but Seth Lugo...

Mets rivals favor Dominic Smith over Pete Alonso in complicated debate: Sherman
Pete Alonso or Dominic Smith. Who you got? The Mets can and probably will keep both, especially if the NL goes to a designated hitter permanently or the Mets willingly continue to have dubious defense by shoehorning Smith in left field. But that this is even a question says something about how both have played...
