Francisco Lindor Rumors: New Mets Contract Expected to Be Worth Around $300M

The New York Mets are expected to eventually sign newly acquired shortstop Francisco Lindor to a $300 million deal, per Jon Heyman of WFAN Sports Radio and MLB Network (0:38 mark):

"I think everybody expects the Mets to get this done at about $300 million," Heyman said when he appeared with Maggie Gray and Marc Malusis on WFAN Radio's Moose and Maggie on Thursday. "We'll see if it goes over that, but I think that's a fair estimate, and I'm going to be surprised if they don't get it done."

The Mets acquired Lindor and starting pitcher Carlos Carrasco in January from Cleveland for four players.
