Francisco Lindor to the San Diego Padres? Not quite a rumor, but with a pair of legs discussed extensively on the radio on both sides of the country and on social media, the idea of trading Francisco Lindor away from the New York Mets is the kind of massive turn no one ever predicted.
How real is it? None of the legitimate baseball writers we know to operate in fact are claiming there is any truth to it. While they miss often, we’ve come to expect just about anything from David Stearns this winter.
Until the pair of legs this “rumor” gets can crawl, it just doesn’t seem realistic.
