Pete Alonso's return to the Mets raises the stakes for his pursuit of Darryl Strawberry's franchise home run record of 27. The upcoming trade deadline on July 31 has set the stage for predictions on whether Alonso can achieve this milestone. Despite a less impressive power year in 2024, where he managed only 22 homers by the deadline, Alonso's performance still placed him among MLB's top hitters in terms of home run percentages. His previous season saw a low output but suggests he remains a significant power threat.
Pete Alonso, returning to the Mets, is on track to potentially surpass Darryl Strawberry's franchise home run record of 27 homers by July 31.
In 2024, Alonso hit 22 homers by July 31, his lowest power output, but still ranked 18th in percentage of homers among qualified hitters.
