2024 Fantasy Outlook
Alonso is a well-established asset in real baseball and fantasy baseball at this point. Amidst trade rumors, Alonso hit 46 home runs in 2023, third in MLB behind only Matt Olson (54) and Kyle Schwarber (47), and drove in 118 (second behind Olson). His batting average plummeted to a career-low .217, but most of that was BABIP-driven (.205 BABIP, .244 xBA). Alonso hit the ball hard and cleared 150 games played for the fourth time in as many full seasons -- slugging carries his game, but Alonso deserves credit for that durability as well. He's been at least 20 percent better than league average by wRC+ in every season of his career. His defensive and baserunning limitations ding him in real life, but Alonso is a counting-stat machine and should enjoy some positive regression in the BA department. Read Past Outlooks
Extension not expected
Mets president of baseball operations David Stearns indicated in an interview with Foul Territory on Wednesday that he does not expect to sign Alonso to a contract extension prior to the first baseman reaching free agency next offseason.
ANALYSIS
Stearns did say that he's hopeful the two sides will eventually be able to work something out, but it doesn't sound like either party anticipates that happening before the end of the season. Alonso, for what it's worth, hired Scott Boras as his agent earlier this offseason. The 29-year-old slugger will make $20.5 million in 2024 before hitting the open market next winter.

Since 2020, only Aaron Judge has more homers than Alonso. If you go back a year, Alonso heads the list. Last season, he posted his best season since 2019, fueled by a career high .271 batting average. Alonso's 18.8 percent strikeout rate dropped for the third straight season. His fly ball exit velocity dropped, but a tick more fly balls and him missing only two games allowed him to reach the 40-homer level for the second time in his career. Other than stolen bases, Alonso checks all boxes. Missing only 18 games in his four-year career shows durability while a wRC+ between 120 and 144 each season indicates reliability. A low strikeout rate offers a solid batting average floor for one of the top sluggers in the league. Alonso also hits in a prominent spot in a productive lineup. For pure power, it doesn't get any better.
