With spring training less than two weeks away, the free agent first baseman remains unsigned and seems destined to settle for a contract that will be considerably lower than his expectation, just like the “Boras Four” from last season. Even so, he doesn’t seem desperate enough to accept just anything — reports indicate quite the opposite, in fact.

First base slugger Pete Alonso remains unsigned but a reunion with the Mets would make sense — or a move out west.
