Despite the offseason’s aggressive moves, like bringing in Juan Soto and re-signing Alonso, the Mets aren’t just relying on talent. They’re counting on that same resilience that got them back in the game last season, even after a rough start. With the season still early, the Mets are hoping to build on this momentum and prove they can contend for a championship.
Pete Alonso came through big for the Mets with a clutch three-run homer against the Marlins, tying up the game in the eighth inning and helping New York pull off a 6-5 win in extra innings. After a slow start, the Mets are finding their groove and starting to look like the team that made a surprising NLCS run last season. Alonso pointed out how this year’s squad has the same never-give-up attitude, saying they’re never out of a game until the last out. He believes that mindset is a key trait of this team.
