The NY Post thinks the Mets care that Pete Alonso is having a good Spring.

From the NY POST.

If the idea is to break camp with the 25 best players, as Mets officials have insisted is true this spring, Pete Alonso is a slam dunk for the major league roster.
Offense, defense, running the bases, the rookie first baseman has shown the Mets everything they could have wanted. Asked Sunday if there is a case that could be made Alonso isn’t one of the team’s best 25 players, manager Mickey Callaway was direct.
“No,” Callaway said. “Plain and simple. Obviously we do have a week-and-a-half left, but he’s done a great job.”

This was after Alonso smashed his team-leading fourth homer of the Grapefruit League in a 10-5 loss to the Nationals. Alonso has posted a 1.058 OPS this spring and has shown improvement at first base.
