The Mets have had a fantastic start to their season. They are the only team in baseball with 20 wins so far this season and already sit 4.5 games ahead in the NL East. The big news heading into this season was about the Mets’ massive signing of Juan Soto. However, it is Pete Alonso who has led the team offensively so far this season. Alonso has been a very streaky player throughout his career. He has unquestionable power and has had great moments in a Mets jersey. However, it was uncertain if he was going to be re-signed this offseason due to the lack of consistency he displays at the plate. The Mets ended up bringing him back to Queens, and so far, the results have completely exceeded their expectations.
So far this season, Alonso ranks third in offensive WAR, behind only Aaron Judge and Fernando Tatis Jr. He ranks third in the majors in RBIs and second in OPS. Alonso has not only been able to show off his great power, but he has also shown more discipline and consistency at the plate than at almost any other point in his career. Soto hasn’t found his groove yet in the two-hole, batting ahead of Alonso. However, the hitters behind Alonso, such as Brandon Nimmo, Luisangel Acuna and now Francisco Alvarez, are all hitting well. That has led to Alonso scoring 20 runs in 29 games so far this season. Pitchers are fearing Alonso and that is allowing him to get on base with ease. Alonso scored five runs in four games against the Nationals in the series prior to this one.
In the series opener against Arizona, I am betting on Pete Alonso to score a run. Alonso has been consistently getting on base, and the guys behind him are driving him in. The left-handed Eduardo Rodriguez will be on the mound for Arizona tonight. Rodriguez has an ERA of 4.40 so far this season and has given up some hard hits along the way. That is good news for Alonso, who has crushed left-handed starters so far this season. The Mets have faced off against five left-handed starters this year and Alonso has an OPS of 1.777 in those 23 plate appearances. Alonso should be able to get on base multiple times in this game, including an extra-base hit. That will give him a good chance to register a run for the Mets in this home game against the Diamondbacks.
