Yesterday, the Mets traded for one of the best players in baseball in Francisco Lindor. He had been Cleveland’s superstar, fantastic on both sides of the ball and both on and off the field. He’s the kind of guy a team builds around, a guy with with a megawatt smile and gregarious personality, and he should fit in well with the Mets’ already fun clubhouse. But since everyone reading this is probably a Mets fan, they may not know the full story on his career in Cleveland.
Lindor was born in Puerto Rico in 1993 and spent twelve years living there.
