Attention, New York Mets‘ fans: a very enticing trade target just became publicly available, according to the latest reports. And it is a game-changing talent, an All-Star shortstop that is excellent in the batter’s box, in the field, and also in the basepaths.
According to Bob Nightengale, the Cleveland Indians are making shortstop Francisco Lindor available for trade and, in fact, want to complete a transaction before Opening Day comes along in 2021. I’ve said the New York Mets should instead target young starting pitching via trade, but it wouldn’t hurt to know what the Tribe wants in return for a player with only one year away from free agency.
