In the game of musical chairs at first base, longtime New York Mets slugger Pete Alonso appears to be the one left without a seat. Alonso, a free agent for the first time, hasn't found the lucrative deal he and his representation have been hoping for.

When New York Mets first baseman Pete Alonso declared free agency after six seasons with the team that picked him in the second round of the 2016 draft, it was widely expected that he could command a contract worth about $200 million over seven years.

Free agent power hitter Pete Alonso has reportedly proposed to the Mets that he will play on three-year contract with opt-outs, according to Jim Duquette.
