1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,200 Speaker 1: He's top three power wise, and that changes the dynamic 2 00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:06,040 Speaker 1: of a lineup that is athletic and has other guys 3 00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:11,600 Speaker 1: that are elite hitters. 4 00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:16,800 Speaker 2: Hey, it's late, We've got a signing Pete Alonso. Back 5 00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 2: to the New York Mets.

Todd two years, fifty four million. Apparently he 8 00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:33,080 Speaker 2: also had a choice of taking a little three year, 9 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 2: seventy one million dollar contract. The big part of this 10 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:38,680 Speaker 2: also is the opt out. This is about one hundred 11 00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:41,879 Speaker 2: million dollars less than Movies offered a couple of years ago. 12 00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:44,280 Speaker 2: So what do you think of the deal? For the 13 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:47,600 Speaker 2: Metropolitans who have had a pretty successful offseason and for 14 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:48,280 Speaker 2: Big Pete. 15 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:51,879 Speaker 3: I think it's a great deal for the Mets, if 16 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:56,440 Speaker 3: you want the truth, considering where they started, the one 17 00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:58,760 Speaker 3: hundred and fifty four million dollar deal that they tried 18 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 3: given him earlier, and now fifty four million dollars a 19 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 3: guy that is worth most likely a lot more than 20 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:08,480 Speaker 3: that that we all know. I can't give you a 21 00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 3: round number, but I can say you can put three 22 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 3: numbers together. And understand how much more he is worth. 23 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,679 Speaker 3: We still don't know exactly how it went down. You know, 24 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 3: I would love to talk to Pete and try and 25 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 3: pick his brain about this whole thing.

Listen, thirty million dollars 31 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 3: guaranteed is a big chunk of change. There's a lot 32 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,040 Speaker 3: though that is left on the table. He does have 33 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 3: that opt out. Yeah, the Mets are back, baby, with 34 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 3: a vengeance here getting Pete Alonso back, and he is 35 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 3: an absolute stud. 36 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 4: Does he deserve more?
