Pete Alonso Mashes Another Homer
Pete Alonso went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and two runs scored in the Mets' 7-6 win over Baltimore on Wednesday. Alonso has had a disappointing sophomore season overall. However, since the calendar flipped to September, Alonso has finally started to show consistent signs of what we saw from him in 2019. In eight games in September, Alonso is batting .312 with five home runs and eight RBI in 32 at-bats. Managers in shallow redraft leagues who remained patient with Alonso are being rewarded down the stretch here in 2020.

Pete Alonso Goes Deep In Second Straight Contest
Pete Alonso went 1-for-3 with a two-run blast and a walk during their victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on Friday afternoon in their home opener. Alonso wasted little time as he went deep in the opening frame off Toronto right-hander Kevin Gausman. This blast also scored shortstop Francisco Lindor, who hit a leadoff double. Alonso would cross home plate again later in the sixth inning on a Starling Marte sacrifice fly. Since tallying just one hit in the first three contests of the regular season, Alonso has gone 6-for-15 at the plate with three home runs, two doubles and 10 RBI over his last four games. The 30-year-old has a disappointing 2024 campaign, to his standards, as he held a .240/.329/.459 line with 34 home runs. He will look to continue this hot stretch on Saturday, facing Toronto right-hander Chris Bassitt.
