Francisco Lindor Extension Talks To Heat Up
4 years agoExtension talks are expected to heat up this week between New York Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor and the team, according to Jon Heyman. They have set Opening Day as a soft deadline to get a deal done. Lindor had originally expressed that extension talks would not transpire during the regular season, so it makes sense for the Mets to get together as soon as possible to discuss the extension with the all-star shortstop. Although Lindor had a down year in 2020 while slashing .258/.335/.415 with just eight home runs and 27 RBI, expectations are high for him in this Mets' lineup and he is worthy of his current ADP of 16 heading into 2021.
