Lonzo Alonzo's grand slam kick-starts the discussion on his potential for a monster season, especially with Juan Soto hitting ahead of him in the lineup. The supportive lineup around Alonzo could reduce pressure, potentially leading to a performance reminiscent of his rookie year. With Soto and Lindor on base, the opportunities for Alonzo to drive in runs are significant.

David Peterson's recent performance, with nine strikeouts in six innings, comes into focus as he solidifies his spot in the Mets' rotation. His confidence has grown, especially after performing well in high-pressure scenarios last season. If he maintains this trajectory, he could become a key contributor for the Mets this year.
