For only the eighth time in franchise history — and the first time in 24 years — the Mets will have a representative in the top three for Most Valuable Player.
Shortstop Francisco Lindor was named a finalist for the 2024 MVP Award, alongside Dodgers two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani, and Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte.
Lindor overcame a rough first month of the 2024 season, where he hit a paltry .197/.280/.359 (83 wRC+), to put together a career year in Queens. He ended the season hitting .273/.344/.500 with 33 home runs, 91 RBI and 29 stolen bases.
