Arrr, matey! The legendary David Wright, a true buccaneer of the diamond, be dishing out sage wisdom to free agent swashbuckler Pete Alonso at a grand parley, just as his jersey be gettin' hoisted to the heavens! Aye, ’tis a fine day for the Mets crew!
Ahoy there, mateys! Gather 'round as we spin the yarn of David Wright, a true legend of the Mets seas, as he be givin' advice to young Pete Alonso, a first baseman who’s sailed the same waters since he first donned the colors of New York. Wright, in his wisdom, declared, "There be naught like the pride of wearin' the jersey of the crew that first believed in ye!" He hopes Alonso holds tight to that pride whilst also remindin' him that gold be callin’ to every scallywag.Wright, a veteran of the Mets from 2004 to 2018, knows well the tides of loyalty. The ol’ sea dog’s number five jersey be retirin’, a true testament to his legacy! Meanwhile, Alonso, the burly beast at first base, has made waves since 2019, clobberin’ homers and shinin' like a polished doubloon. With 226 cannonballs launched, he be just shy of claimin’ the franchise record!
But alas, the waters be choppin’ for Alonso as other teams snatch up top talents, makin’ the market as scarce as a pirate’s gold! Should the stars align, and Alonso stay with the Mets, he could soon be the captain of the ship known as home runs! So, let’s raise a tankard to this merry band of Buccaneers in blue and orange!
