But that bat though...
That's what minor league seasoning is for. The good thing is that 1B isn't a position that defensive abilities tends to decline as a player gets old (like SS or CF) so we'd hope that the more reps/time he gets at 1B, he should be able to improve a little bit.
Maybe try and package him in a Realmuto trade before he's exposed any further. If the bat is as good as people say maybe the Marlins care less than the Mets should.

Marlins have Justin Bour cheaply so why would they want Alonso as the prime piece in a trade?

Bour is 30 years old sub replacement level and arb eligible next year and averages around 100 games per season.
Alonso is 23 years old in AA, I don't know the two have much bearing on each other.
And I'm not sure Alonso is well regarded enough to be the centerpiece. Might need to be Gimenez.

not anti-Ramos per se, I hated the trade from the second the Mets made it. I still don't understand why they made it. Merandy could get permanently banned from MLB for any reason or just flat out bust and I won't think that was a good trade.

the only reason I can think of for their making that trade is that the Mets expected the market to very high priced. It turns out the market for free agents went the other way, so the trade looks a lot worse than it otherwise might have.
I hated the trade at the time and still do. But there was some logic to it. also, Ramos was insurance in case Familia did not come back strong
Addison Reed may shit the bed, who knows, but he's making less this year than AJ Ramos and wouldn't have cost Merandy.
And Reed has more saves than Ramos in his career and is younger (not that it matters so much with relievers).
