"Free agent first baseman Pete Alonso is attending the Winter Meetings and will have in-person sit-downs with the Red Sox and Orioles, among other interested clubs, reports Jon Heyman of the New York Post. Both the Red Sox and the O's have already been at least loosely linked to the Polar Bear, but it's nevertheless notable that Alonso is both attending the event himself - it's located within driving distance of his Florida home - and that both are interested enough to meet with the player directly."
"Triston Casas missed almost the entire 2025 season due to a knee injury. Replacements Romy Gonzalez, Abraham Toro and Nathaniel Lowe held their own, but Toro ( outrighted, elected free agency) and Lowe ( designated for assignment, non-tendered) are no longer with the club. The vast majority of Gonzalez's production came against left-handed pitching. He was a below-average hitter versus righties - albeit not by that much, but with the help of a BABIP north of .370."
Pete Alonso is a free agent first baseman attending the Winter Meetings and will meet in person with the Red Sox and Orioles, among other clubs. Alonso lives within driving distance of the event and is expected to meet additional teams during the week. Triston Casas missed nearly all of 2025 due to a knee injury. Romy Gonzalez, Abraham Toro and Nathaniel Lowe served as replacements; Toro and Lowe are no longer with Boston. Gonzalez produced mostly against left-handed pitching and was below-average versus righties. Alonso is open to some designated-hitter work, and Boston faces large payroll and luxury-tax obligations.
