Francisco Lindor Fantasy Stats

New York Mets All-Star shortstop Francisco Lindor (elbow) recently had a right-elbow debridement surgery, but he's expected to be ready for spring training in February, according to the team. Lindor also had a cleanup procedure on his throwing elbow after the 2023 campaign to remove bone spurs. He should be completely fine for the start of the 2026 regular season and will enter the year as one of the premier fantasy options at the shortstop position. The Puerto Rican infielder hit only .267 (172-for-644) in a league-high 732 plate appearances during the regular season, but he still managed to reach the 30-homer mark for the third straight season in New York and the sixth time in his career. Lindor added 86 RBI, 117 runs scored, and a career-high 31 stolen bases. Fantasy managers definitely can't complain about a 31-31 season.

Wednesday's doubleheader against the Milwaukee Brewers was a mixed bag for shortstop Francisco Lindor and the New York Mets. Lindor went 0-for-4 in Game 1 as the Mets dropped a 7-2 decision. The team turned it around in a 7-3 win in the nightcap, though, and Lindor was a key contributor. For the first time in 191 games, Lindor did not hit leadoff for the Mets. They dropped him to second in the order, and Lindor responded by going 3-for-4 with a solo homer, a double, and three RBI. It ended a week-long skid for the 31-year-old switch-hitter, who was mired in a 2-for-29 slump entering the evening. Just named to his fifth All-Star team, Lindor is now slashing 261/.330/.457 with 17 homers, 46 RBI, 52 runs scored, and 13 steals in 385 plate appearances. He's well on his way to a third straight 20/20 campaign.

New York Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor went 2-for-5 with a home run and three RBI in Saturday's 11-4 road win against the Philadelphia Phillies. He also doubled to break a 0-for-16 slump at the dish. The fantasy stalwart mashed homer No. 15 off Phillies' starter Mick Abel to lead off the third inning in the first of back-to-back-to-back jacks with Brandon Nimmo and Juan Soto following suit. It's worth noting that all three at-bats were six pitches or more. The long ball was Lindor's first in 16 games. He isn't sporting the same expected statistics he did a season ago, but fantasy managers likely won't quibble with his production thus far. The former first-round pick is slashing .267/.340/.463 with 14 doubles, 13 steals, 48 runs scored, and 41 RBI from atop the Mets' lineup.

New York Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor (toe) is back in the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Colorado Rockies. Lindor will make his way back into the starting lineup after not starting in each of the last two games due to a fractured toe. He was able to come off the bench as a pinch-hitter during Friday's contest. Lindor will return to his spot at shortstop and bat leadoff against right-hander German Marquez on Saturday. Fantasy managers should make sure to get Lindor back in their lineups ahead of first pitch.

New York Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor (toe) will miss a second straight game in Friday's series opener at Coors Field against the hosting Colorado Rockies. Lindor fractured his right pinkie toe when he was hit by a pitch in Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers and will now miss his second straight game. The good news is that Lindor isn't expected to land on the injured list because of the injury, and he could return as soon as Saturday. It will be more of a pain-tolerance issue for the 31-year-old All-Star. Fantasy managers can only hope that it won't affect his offensive production moving forward. The Puerto Rican infielder is one of the best shortstops in the game and currently has a .279/.353/.490 slash line with an .843 OPS, 14 long balls, 36 RBI, 42 runs and 11 steals in 247 at-bats. Ronny Mauricio is at short and is batting ninth on Friday against lefty opener Ryan Rolison.

New York Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor (toe) is dealing with a broken right pinkie toe but intends to play through the injury and is being considered day-to-day, according to MLB.com's Anthony DiComo. The injury occurred when Lindor was hit by a pitch in the first inning of Wednesday's win over the Los Angeles Dodgers, and the 31-year-old All-Star finished out the game. Although he doesn't plan on going on the injured list, Lindor is absent from Thursday's series finale at Dodger Stadium. Luisangel is starting at the 6 and will bat ninth against Dodgers right-hander Landon Knack. Lindor has been his normal solid self in 2025, hitting .279/.353/.490 with an .843 OPS, 14 home runs, 36 RBI, 42 runs scored and 11 stolen bases in 247 at-bats. It's great news that he isn't expected to miss extended time, but hopefully it won't negatively affect his production at the plate.

New York Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor went 2-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in Monday's 4-3 road win over the Los Angeles Dodgers. He also singled and notched his eleventh steal of the season. The fantasy stalwart didn't take long to leave his mark on this one, blasting Dodgers starter Dustin May's second offering of the matchup 417 feet over the right-field wall. That was homer No. 14 for him, and the sixth time he's done so to lead off a game -- tying him with Shohei Ohtani for the major-league lead and putting him one behind Curtis Granderson for the most in a single season in Mets' history. He'd also notch a clutch RBI single in the top of the tenth inning to push the go-ahead run across in teammate Starling Marte. Lindor is up to four homers in as many games with three multi-hit outings in that stretch.

New York Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor went 3-for-4 with a single and two homers against the Colorado Rockies on Friday. He finished the game with three runs and two RBI, accounting for the majority of the Mets' runs in their relatively narrow 4-2 win over the Rockies. Lindor continues to impress in his age-31 season, slashing .278/.347/.480 with 12 home runs, 33 RBI, and 10 stolen bases. He currently owns a 121 wRC+, putting him on pace to finish in the triple digits for the 11th time in as many seasons. Lindor has played shortstop in all but one of the Mets' games this year. As long as he stays healthy, he'll remain a highly impactful option in fantasy baseball.

New York Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor was the hero with the bat during Monday's game against the Chicago White Sox. For some reason, the Mets bats looked lost against right-hander Adrian Houser during this game. They were able to scratch across a run and tie the game until Lindor delivered a game-winning sacrifice fly in the ninth inning. It wasn't the most dramatic way to win a game with a bases loaded sac fly, but Mets fans will take it. Lindor finished the game 1-for-4 with one RBI as the Mets take the first game of this series.

New York Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor helped the Mets avoid a sweep at Fenway Park on Wednesday night by going 2-for-5 out of the leadoff spot with a home run for an insurance run in the ninth inning. He doubled to lead off the game against Garrett Crochet and stole third base before being stranded. He added another theft in the seventh inning after reaching on a fielder's choice. On the season, Lindor has 10 homers and nine stolen bases and is hitting .283 with a .361 wOBA. He has been a solid contributor at the top of the Mets' lineup and will remain a great option at shortstop in all formats with a very high ceiling on a nightly basis since he can have a big night with power, speed, or a combination of the two.
