Here’s to a great week!
From Terry Pluto:
Those who say Lindor will be traded are about 99 percent right...the Indians have gotten nowhere in terms of a long-term deal with his agents.
But trading him now? I have doubts.
The Indians believe they can knock off Minnesota and win the Central Division. They know Lindor is two seasons away from free agency. There will still be a strong market for him at the mid-season trading deadline.
The general managers meetings are coming soon. Rumors will fly. Teams will approach the Tribe for Lindor, and the Indians will listen.
