Francisco Lindor Showing Signs Of Life At The Plate
Francisco Lindor went 2-for-4 with two runs scored and a walk in the Mets' 5-1 win over the Phillies on Wednesday. Lindor, who is off to a slow start to begin the 2021 campaign and his Mets' career, raised his batting average to .222 over 27 at-bats on the season. After a great spring training in which Lindor hit .370 with four home runs and 14 RBI, Lindor's bat has cooled off since the regular season began. Wednesday's performance is, hopefully, a sign that he is about to break out. Realizing that it has only been eight games, managers should certainly keep Lindor active in all formats. Although Lindor had a down year in 2020, expectations are high for him in 2021 hitting in the potent Mets' lineup. It is only a matter of time before Lindor's bat gets going and fantasy managers who have him rostered reap the benefits.

Francisco Lindor Notches Second Straight Multi-Hit Outing
Francisco Lindor went 3-for-5 with a home run in his team's 7-2 victory against the Chicago Cubs. The superstar switch-hitter singled and scored twice, adding his fifth stolen base of the campaign. Lindor started the scoring for New York with a 388-foot shot off Cubs pitcher Jameson Taillon to lead off the bottom of the first inning. The long ball was his eighth, and second in his last four outings, as he continues to enjoy a fantastic start to 2025. He's up to a .297 average to go along with seven doubles, 26 runs scored, and 25 RBI. If the former first-round pick is set to take off in the summer months as he usually does, he could be in store for a monster season. Friday marked his second straight multi-hit effort and third in his last five.

Francisco Lindor Launches Two Big Flies On Monday
Francisco Lindor had a huge game on Monday, going 2-for-3 with two homers and four RBI in a 5-4 win over the Philadelphia Phillies. Lindor also walked and scored twice to round out his line.

His season numbers look like normal Lindor numbers as well, with a .284 AVG and .840 OPS to go along with 16 runs, five homers, 13 RBI, and two swipes.

Francisco Lindor Collects Three Hits, Homers
Francisco Lindor went 3-for-5 with a home run in the team's 7-4 win over the St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday. He also struck out once and scored thrice. Lindor has typically been a slow starter, but he's wasted no time impacting the field in 2025. The 31-year-old has a hit in 16 of 18 games since starting the season 0-for-11 over New York's first three contests. He's got two homers in his last three appearances and is making consistent hard contact. On Sunday, the former first-round pick logged three hard-hit balls, all registering 102.9 MPH or above. Lindor's spot in the Mets' lineup may limit his RBI totals this season. However, he may make up for it in runs scored -- particularly with teammate Juan Soto heating up and Pete Alonso performing like one of the best hitters in baseball behind him.
