Pete Alonso Provides Comical Vision for the Mets' Best-Case Scenario for the 2020 Season
By Will Coleman

What could have MLB players more stoked for the 2020 season than teams reporting to Florida and Arizona to commence Spring Training? Watching the Kansas City Chiefs' joyous Super Bowl celebration.
Less than two weeks after Kansas City's championship parade, New York Mets first baseman Pete Alonso put into perspective what he wants to be doing come mid-November when this upcoming baseball season is all said and done.
Pete Alonso: “I want to be on a parade float drunk as hell.”

There's just something about standing tall above everyone else on a double-decker bus, double-fisting some cold ones with your best friends and teammates while celebrating the unthinkable: a World Series championship.
The Mets haven't been back to the Fall Classic since their 2015 defeat to the Kansas City Royals, and they haven't won it since 1986, but Alonso feels this ball club isn't all that far from another NL pennant. They have the pitching staff led by Jacob deGrom and Noah Syndergaard to do it; it's just a matter of Alonso and the rest of this offense being able to produce runs consistently and outgun the likes of the Nationals, Braves, and Phillies.

For Alonso and New York to even clinch a spot in the playoffs, they'll have to make it out of one baseball's most competitive divisions. Atlanta's a two-time NL East champion, the Nationals rode a Wild Card berth all the way to a chip, and the Phillies are talent-rich once again. But Alonso is already hard at work speaking the ultimate prize into existence.
