Francisco Lindor: A Misunderstood Superstar

[@NessKeyi]

As a Mets fan who watches him on a daily basis, and was my favorite player from his time in Cleveland he is a superstar that is underrated at this point. I hate how one mediocre season in 2021 sullied so many Mets fans on him. But, he posts up everyday giving excellent production on both sides of the ball and answers every media question like a true pro. As always great video.

[@3-0Greenlight]

He's been amazing! Happy to hear you've been enjoying watching him play. And thank you for your kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed the vid!

[@JustMeELC]

He 100% deserves better! I just don't get it sigh 🤦

[@mastercupcake]

He was my favorite player too pre trade and is still my fav all time. I’ll never forget getting the notification we got him

[@PYahWeh]

I’m not saying he hasn’t had good seasons since coming to The Mets, but there is an OBVIOUS reason why people don’t talk about him as much as when he was in Cleveland-he’s lost his pop. Yes, he hit 31 homers last year BUT, he hasn’t had an OPS over .806 since joining the Mets (he was routinely over .850 while in Cleveland). He also used to be a doubles MACHINE reaching over 40 doubles 3 times while in Cleveland; since joining The Mets, he could barely get 30 (he did it last year, that’s it). That doesn’t include that he’s striking out ALOT more (he’s on pace for yet another season over 130 K’s; something he did NOT do in Cleveland). And most importantly, when he was in Cleveland he could at least get his OBP to over .350 - while in New York, Lindor has been lucky to reach a .330 OBP. So maybe he’s putting up decent numbers at face-value; but it’s clear why isn’t talked about as much as when he was wearing a Cleveland Indian (Guardians) jersey.

Whoever wins in nyc with the mets knicks or jets becomes king of new york Lindor just needs a ring with the mets and hes recognized as the greatest shortstop Nyc is a what have you done for me lately city and you need to win in ny for recognition Lindor is great and he will win one when its all said and done

[@3-0Greenlight]

With Cohen's big wallet I wouldn't be surprised if they are able to buy a ring

[@CharlesNYR]

NYC is the fallen sports city with once great teams like the Yankees Who have fallen over the last decade The Rangers haven’t managed to pull it off since the legendary 1993-94 season The Knicks were once considered a potential dynasty but haven’t won since the 70s The Jets were on track to be one of the best teams in the NFL but fell after the 1969 Super Bowl The Giants haven’t had much success besides the 2 most random championships ever a long with. Few good season for the 80s and early 90s The Islanders had a dynasty But fell and have been mid aswell And the Mets were once considered a potential dynasty on the 1980s And the Newest NY Team the Nets haven’t had much of a history even outside of NY so

[@troyd95]

As a mets fan, I believe the reason he is underlooked is bc he tends to get off to slow starts with his bat. at one point in april he was hitting less than .200. but ever since the team meeting, he called with players only an took accountability for the struggles he turned it around and has been one of the best SS in the league

[@3-0Greenlight]

That has definitely been the case.

[@Jrseydevil]

He’s done that every single year he’s been with the Mets. Starts off super slow in April/may. Then starts to heat up going into the break and then has a great second half of the season.

[@markdinkel-uh2je]

Go Mets.

[@markdinkel-uh2je]

​@@3-0Greenlightyeppers. Regardless I'ma a Mets fan forever. Now let's kick some 🐴 and get in playoffs

[@jayisasalad]

Why Lindor is underrated? Bc the mets fanbase is the most hot and cold group of people ever. On most days im embarrassed to call myself a mets fan bc of the way some people act here. Lindor is a fantastic player and i think people need to forget about the stupid contract bs bc at the end of the day we aint footing the bill, cohen is, and cohen and his guys paid that much for a reason. Lindor will be the only Met of this current era / generation to hit the hall of fame at this current rate. Unless pete figures his shit out or alvy goes nuclear. Lindor is a beast and also the kindest coolest person out there. Mets fans need to spread more love to this team and maybe things will continue to get better this second half. LFGM BABYY

[@JanksBaseball2428]

Bc I used to like him when he was on the Indians, but ever since he's been a met, he's been an overrated bum just because I'm a Phillies fan/muck the fets

[@nobeardthepirate9172]

Its because the mets are the little brother team, yankees fans are more intrested in red sox or rays players than guys in there own city.

[@petenieto1575]

Mets fans don’t deserve a player like this. I’m a Mets fan, read all the comments on places like this and on Metsmerized, and I can honestly say we have the most hateful, spiteful and idiotic fans in the league. Even Phillies fans are less trash. If I was given the God given talent to play this sport at the MLB level, I would never play for this team. Not because of anything more than their fans. We couldn’t even appreciate Carlos Beltran when he was here either. He carried the team during that playoff run years ago then struck out on a hellacious back door curveball by a great pitcher. I’ve seen some of the greats like Pujols, Harper, and everyone’s golden boys Judge and Jetsr strike out on as well. Mets fans don’t know how to appreciate greatness. They always want someone else until they get them. If you don’t believe me, just read what’s written on this very board. “Ain’t worth the money,,” “stupid signing by Cohen,” “doesn’t deserve to be an all-star.” Smdh, LFGM.

He’s on pace for his second 30-30 season in a row, the year before he broke Jose Reyes’ club record in rbi’s for Mets ss and still hasn’t been an all star in 5 years. He starts the seasons off slow but by the end of the season his numbers speak for themselves and as lenient as getting into the hof has become, I still feel he will get snubbed unfortunately

[@S0appy-t8w]

Lindor is my favourite player and I love watching him play everyday and really hope people turn to realize how good he is

[@mmmguannaaa6657]

He's a star. Hes a leader. He'll be in the Hall of Fame one day and he speaks better English than me lol. We're lucky as Mets fans to have him.

[@slayermcrx7519]

I literally just pull up that clip from 2017 whenever someone talks crap about Lindor. He is definitely one of the better players in the league but people overlook him now and yes maybe his stars have fallen off in past years but he is not washed by any means. There is a reason he is where he is, and why he is in probably one of the best postseason calls in history. "LINDOR WITH A SWING AND A DRIVE... AND IT'S GONE! SANTA MARIA!"

[@Nyhiak]

For better or worse, when Lindor contributes to the game the Mets win. Best SS the Mets have ever had . Contract was a bargain.

[@3-0Greenlight]

Definitely been the case the last couple months. He has helped this team turn it around fast.

[@Mac-ln9ny]

as much of a hot take as this could sound like i’d rather pay him when we did than reyes at the time of his fa

[@oxboweditz]

I think people are just saying he doesn’t live up to his contract but i think he’s top 5 ss

[@Rytoast99]

Betts (if you count him as a SS) Turner, Henderson, Witt Jr, Seager, and Correa I think are all better overall. I do think Lindor is better than Abrams, De La Cruz, O Cruz, Tovar, Adames, Winn, and Bichette. Lindor is certainly one of the better defensive shortstops, certainly better than Betts and Turner; cant speak on the others, i just dont understand why people think he shouldve been an allstar. 3 NL shortstops were better choices. Lindor had a higher oWAR than Harper somehow until you realize he was leading the NL in PA which was close to 90 more than Harper at the time. I think he numbers were boosted by some wild positional adjustments that are less needed in today MLB where the trend has been toward positionless baseball and where every player can pick up and learn every position pretty quickly

[@Zygwired]

@@Rytoast99availability is the best ability. Lindor might not be having as good of a year as some of those guys but he career says he is better than those guys. And his career says he’s one of the best defensive players ever in that position. With the shift gone, training guys to sit at shortstop is a lot less effective.

[@3-0Greenlight]

That's a fair point. But I think for his consistent value he's brought the Mets they would do the contract over in a heartbeat though.

[@darinstockhammer8440]

@@Rytoast99of all the shortstops you named turner and betts are the only ones in the NL, and betts was hurt. So if he was only behind turner, wouldn’t he be the second best shortstop in the NL, hence cause for an all star nod?

Listening to the media talk about Lindor earlier this season was so frustrating. He’s consistently been one of the most valuable players in the league yet pundits were saying he single handedly was burying the mets, despite how unlucky he was getting with his Babip earlier on.

[@manuelguerrero6135]

The best Shorstop of the game the real MVP!!!!!

[@darbindelacruz8937]

Nice video! I love Lindor❤ can you make a video about Jose Ramirez he is so underrated and I still miss him with Lindor 😢

[@VinnGonz]

Excellent video! Too add to why some Mets fans still view him poorly, I remember he turned down the first big extension offer by the Mets and it dragged out the negotiations basically until opening day. So with him not preforming early on, after pushing for a higher offer definitely bothered some fans. But what he's done since his first month as a Met has been nothing but outstanding, and he's going to go down as the best SS the Mets have ever had and one of the best overall players they've ever had in their franchise. Hopefully more people start appreciating what we're watching day in and day out. He deserves every bit and more of that contract if you ask me.

[@ereal713]

The biggest thing about Lindor. He learned to just love the game of baseball. It was cemented in Cleveland when he found a brotherhood. That's Cleveland's mentality every year, make a brotherhood that just loves playing baseball. NY held him to a very high standard. He had to make an adjustment, but he can handle it. All hail Lord Lindor.

He is extremely talented offensively and defensively, but he does tend to relax and not give 100% at times. When he hears the criticism and boos, he turns it on and becomes unstoppable. In 2024, he is leading the Mets to a possible playoff run. Theyre hot.

[@JanksBaseball2428]

Remember how I'm 14-1 in fantasy? Well i need ur advice bc i made a trade just because i saw Elly De La Cruz was in it. I traded for him thinking he could play second, but he can't. So heres the dilemma. I traded my starting 2nd baseman (jordan Westburg) and mookie is injured. Heres what my lineup looks like and how many points per game theh average: C. Adley Rutschman 3.9 1B. Bryce Harper 5.3 2B. (Empty) 0.0 SS. Bobby Witt Jr. 5.3 3B. J-Ram 5.0 OF. Teoscar Hernandez 3.4 OF. Jarren Duran 3.8 OF. Ian Happ 3.5 UTL. Alec Bohm 4.3 BE. Jazz Chissolm Jr. 3.2 BE. Elly De La Cruz 4.3 So, Elly can only play SS and 3B. So who do I bench/most likely trade to play Elly? I'd like to keep Bohm as a starter just because of how good he's been this year, but idk, help. I'd also need a 2B I could reasonably get till Mookie Betts comes back (according to espn on 8/2)

[@3-0Greenlight]

That's tough. Witt and J-Ram are both guys you can't take out. I guess it would have to be Bohm. Maybe you can swing a deal to send Bohm somewhere and put Elly at UTL. Betts shouldn't be out for too much longer so I would just go to the free agents and stream a 2B until then.

[@sebastiansanchez7528]

Hall of famer maybe, since people like bagwell, baines, and Ozzie are in. But Lindor just like the 3 other players I mentioned deserve to be in the hall of very good not the hall of fame. When you think of a hall of famer you think of a player who’s iconic, if you have to think twice about a player being in the hall he does not deserve it.

[@BBB17470]

All I know is that since he got to the Mets he has a batting average in the low 250s , strikes out almost 140 times a year to only 60 walks ,I mean yeah he’s been solid defensively but for a guy who gets 30 million a year come on now you guys is tripping

[@Lowbudgetsports]

Great video! Nobody thinks Lindor is bad. Playing devils advocate as a padres fan also having buyers remorse about a shortstop (Xander) it’s not about him being bad, when you pay a guy 250+ million in this day and age, you want more than accumulation stats, you want him to come up clutch in big moments, you want every at bat to be much watch baseball. He was when he was hitting 30+ home runs, now he’s just sorta there, would you take him on ur team? Sure. But not for 34 million dollars a year. You look at a guy like shohei as the basis for contract value it seems, and if you are telling me lindor is half as valuable as Ohtani it’s just not true. It’s all relative so this is just my opinion of course, but if I have 35 million dollars, give me shohei as a hitter or Aaron judge every day. Defense is great but you can get defensive value for a lot less if ur not worried about offense, and you can probably find salvageable defenders to fill in for one really good one. Sorta like in moneyball you can find 3 average or slightly above average defenders to replace one really good one for a lot less money, you sign lindor for his offense at the end of the day.

[@3-0Greenlight]

I think the money aspect isn't too bad, at least at the moment. Cohen is loaded and was able to spend that much on him without sacrificing elsewhere. If he's consistently at 5-6 WAR which he has been. Then I think it is a success.

He lost his mojo since he left the "INDIANS"

[@robharper2078]

I'd like to offer up some reasons why Lindor isn't valued as much as his fans think he should be. 1.) His huge contract -- yes, he's a good SS, but MLB is littered with good SS not earning nearly as much money. 2.) His batting. Whereas some players are clutch batters in pivotal moments in games, Lindor usually falls flat. His production seems to come in games wherein the Mets are far ahead or far behind. He was hired to be an impact player, but he has had very little impact on game outcomes. 3.) His demeanor -- "Mr. Smile" glad-handing people come across as fake, fake, fake. 4.) His appearance -- he seems to spend more time in a hair salon than a batting cage. And his fancy, flashy shoes and gloves. He's considered narcissistic. His ego is perceived to be greater than his talent.

This video barely acknowledges the things that explain why people don’t like him. It comes down to his horrible starts and the impact it had on the team’s success. This year is the worst. The narrator mentions that Lindor was hitting .229 at the end of May. What he doesn’t mention is that three days earlier, he was hitting .201 - and that he was below 200 for a long time, with incredibly low OBP etc. That atrocious start played a major role in the Mets’ terrible start. If he had just played decently, the Mets now would be in a far more comfortable position for the playoffs. His yearly stats look fine, but they’re deceptive because they don’t give you a sense of those Aprils and Mays, which played a big role in putting the Mets in a hole. He bears a heavy responsibility for those failed seasons. Those epic slumps diminished the team’s win total.

I had completely forgotten Asdrubel played for the Mets. He always seemed to play better against the Tigers. He was frustrating to watch for that reason as a Tigers fan, but he was a good player

[@3-0Greenlight]

He had some great years!

[@Josyeliel]

That's why you don't play for NY

[@uebe8669]

He is going to be first ballot if he doesn’t get hurt

[@3-0Greenlight]

I agree!

HOF!

Doing better than my SS atm :(

13:44 but would you accept that at over 300 million?

[@3-0Greenlight]

For the value they have been getting I think it's been a good deal for both sides. Not to mention Cohen can afford to hand over more money and not have to sacrifice elsewhere. With that being said will he still be this dominant when he's in his late 30s? Probably not. So it'll be interesting to see how he fares during those years.

@@3-0Greenlightfair enough. Keep it up though I really fk with the channel man

[@dashx1103]

I think he's a bargain on his current contract.

Hall of famer??

[@3-0Greenlight]

He's definitely on his way to being one.

[@dashx1103]

If Lindor stays healthy, he is definitely headed for the Hall.
