Mets' Francisco Lindor: On base three times Friday
Rotowire
Lindor went 1-for-2 with a double, two walks, a stolen base and two runs scored in Friday's 5-0 win over the Blue Jays.
Lindor's bat is coming around after a slow start to the season. He's hit safely in three straight games and also collected his second steal of the campaign, as well as his first two walks and first extra-base hit, in this contest. The shortstop is batting .136 over six games and has added two RBI and three runs scored so far this season. He's a notorious slow starter, but fantasy managers should expect Lindor to be fine in the long run, especially if he stays atop a strong lineup.

Mets' Francisco Lindor: Collects first hit, steal
Rotowire
Lindor went 1-for-4 with an RBI and a stolen base in Tuesday's loss to the Marlins.
The shortstop is notorious for having slow starts at the plate, and 2025 has been no exception so far as Lindor went 0-for-11 in his first three games. Tuesday's steal was also his first of the campaign after he swiped 60 in 68 attempts over the prior two seasons combined. There's little concern with Lindor's long-term production, but his history suggests he won't begin to warm up until the weather does -- his .741 career OPS in March/April is his lowest in any month, with an .886 OPS in July being his high-water mark.

Rotowire
Lindor is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Marlins following the birth of his child, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
According to Anthony DiComo of MLB.com, Mets manager Carlos Mendoza acknowledged Saturday that Lindor was expecting his third child in the coming days, but the veteran shortstop remained with the team in Houston throughout the weekend before his wife gave birth earlier Monday. Notably, the Mets haven't placed Lindor on the paternity list, so the 31-year-old could meet back up with the team in Miami at some point later on during the three-game series versus the Marlins.
