New York Mets fans are expressing their frustration on social media after first baseman Pete Alonso disclosed that the team did not reach out to him during free agency, leading to his signing with the Baltimore Orioles on a 5-year, $155 million contract. Alonso shared that he had a conversation with Brandon Nimmo, who also faced uncertainty about his future with the Mets. Nimmo expressed his desire to remain teammates, but Alonso revealed he had not been contacted by the team at all. This revelation has sparked outrage among fans, many of whom are calling for the dismissal of David Stearns, the president of baseball operations, following the Mets' disappointing 10-21 start to the season. The front office's decisions, including allowing Alonso and Edwin Diaz to leave and trading Nimmo to the Texas Rangers, have been heavily criticized. The Mets' recent signings have not yielded positive results, particularly at first base, where Brett Baty has struggled. Alonso, now with the Orioles, expressed excitement about his new team, stating that they see him as part of their future, while he has no regrets about his time with the Mets.
