Lindor Stays Put Despite Trade Rumors | New York Mets News

Trade rumors swirl around Francisco Lindor as the Mets near the deadline, but don’t get too excited—Lindor’s staying. Despite whispers of friction with Juan Soto and a dip in production (partly injury-related), both players reportedly get along fine and Lindor’s still flashing elite form. Moving him? Nearly impossible—his $170M+ contract over five years is a massive hurdle, and the Mets’ ownership isn’t eager to shed payroll. Replacing him? Nearly impossible too—no one else can fill his WAR-level impact at shortstop and third base. Owner says both stars are locked in for the long haul.
