The New York Mets are projected to target Alec Bohm, the Philadelphia Phillies' All-Star third baseman, during the upcoming free agency period. Bohm, who played this past season under a $10.2 million contract, may not return to the Phillies as the team seeks to rebuild. The Mets struggled at first base and could use Bohm's consistent hitting skills to strengthen their lineup. Jorge Polanco's underwhelming performance may lead the Mets to explore moving him from his current position. A successful signing of Bohm could help the Mets improve after two consecutive seasons without playoff appearances.
