Lindor's Complicated Decline
from Talkin' Mets Hosted by Talkin Mets with Mike Silva
The Mets closed out the ceremonial first half of the season with one of their most disappointing losses of the year, as Francisco Lindor's costly ninth-inning error reignited calls from some fans to move on from the star shortstop. Mike revisits the Lindor trade conversation from earlier in the week, explaining why such a move is not only highly unlikely but would also complicate any realistic plans to contend in 2027. Despite the tough finish, there was another encouraging performance from rookie Zach Thornton, who continues to make a strong case as the third cornerstone of what could become an exciting, high-upside young Mets rotation. In the mailbag, Mike shares his thoughts on the Mets' draft class, evaluates Luis Robert Jr.'s return, and debates whether the club should consider trading Luke Weaver before the deadline.
