In this mailbag episode, we discuss the possibility of the D-backs signing Pete Alonso — a proposal made by ESPN's Jeff Passan. We also discuss what a D-backs package for Tarik Skubal might look like, as well as whether it would be worthwhile to trade Ketel Marte for two years of a controllable starter.
