Would you take Pete Alonso in a short-term deal with opt-outs? Alonso's market appears to be shrinking as the Mets back away. Is he ready for a Chapman-style one year with options deal? He turned down a $21.05 mms. qualifying offer, so the Giants would have to give up draft picks.

According to Statcast, 208 of Alonso's 226 HRs would have been home runs at Oracle.

And Santander joined the Blue Jays for a comparative pittance, $92 mms./5 years.

Nope.  SF has already given up a couple draft picks for Adames.  Giving up another two for a guy who is basically nothing more than an expensive placeholder for Eldridge makes no sense. I’d perfect holding the draft picks and keeping the cash (and staying well below the CBT limit with an eye towards making some moves at the mid-season trade deadline).
