That year Alonso tore up the minors, hitting .285 with 36 home runs and 124 RBI playing primarily at the Mets Double-A and Triple-A affiliates. After he did not receive a promotion at the end of the 2018 season, Alonso was determined to make the Mets Opening Day roster in 2019. Alonso ended up having an incredible Spring Training for the Mets in 2019 and earned his job on the major league roster as their starting first baseman.
