ORLANDO, Fla. — Pete Alonso’s residence in Tampa has turned these Winter Meetings into something of a home game for the free agent slugger as another potential power option looms for the Mets.
Alonso will take the 90-minute drive to central Florida on Tuesday, according to sources, to meet in person with interested suitors that include the Red Sox and Orioles.
The Mets, who have not ruled out an Alonso reunion, are also interested in Kyle Schwarber, according to industry sources, potentially giving the lineup an unrivaled 1-2 lefty punch, along with Juan Soto.
Alonso won’t meet with Mets officials at the Winter Meetings, according to president of baseball operations David Stearns.
