Frankly, I'd rather have Pete Alonso than Juan Soto.

Based on the past two days, sure.

Alonso was damn near useless down the stretch last year until one big HR at end.

But that was a big HR! I dunno, Juan Soto is obviously good, but I just find it hard to root for him. Maybe because I think he's a bit of a douchebag for turning down the Yankees' $760 million offer after all the love he got from the Yankees fans last season. I don't even like the Yankees, but I still think it's a bit quiche of him.
