New York Mets owner Steve Cohen, top baseball operations executive David Stearns, and manager Carlos Mendoza held a forum during the team's fan fest event on Saturday. Predictably, the group was met with "We want Pete" chants from onlookers hoping to persuade the braintrust into entering a new agreement with longtime first baseman and current free agent Pete Alonso.

While Pete Alonso remains a free agentt, returning to the Mets seems like the most logical fit. However, it appears that the we very well could see some new faces at first base in Queens next season.

Just before Mets owner Steve Cohen answered a question about where things stand with Alonso, a homegrown star and free agent first baseman, during a panel discussion, a spirited crowd began chanting, “Let’s Sign Pete! Let’s sign Pete! Let’s sign Pete!”
