Listen "Alonso's Ultimatum: Aggression Now or Forever Hold Your Peace, Stearns!"
Episode Synopsis
BT & Sal demand Steve Cohen and David Stearns adopt an aggressive, take-charge approach to securing Pete Alonso this offseason. Tierney argues the Mets must "call his bluff" and make him their best offer now (suggesting six years, $200 million) to test how much he truly wants to be a Met, rather than letting Scott Boras drag the process into next year. Sal emphasizes that despite the homegrown narrative, Alonso deserves and will demand fair market value after his bounce-back season. The conversation also touches on the Yankees' pursuit of Paul Skenes, the controversial trend of massive deferred payments in contracts (like the Dodgers' deal with Ohtani), and the challenge for consumers to navigate the sea of conflicting reports from national baseball reporters.
