Mets’ Francisco Lindor Faces Unexpected Injury: Fractured Pinky Toe Sparks Questions About His Playing Future
Lindor, 31, is batting .279/.353/.490 with 10 doubles, 14 home runs, 36 RBI and 11 stolen bases in 283 plate appearances. Last season, he finished as the runner-up in National League MVP voting to Shohei Ohtani with a .273/.344/.500 average, 39 doubles, 33 homers, 91 RBI and 39 steals.
In Lindor’s absence, Luisangel Acuña started at shortstop on Thursday and is expected to fill in at the position until the veteran returns. He’s hitting .246/.298/.292 and has mostly played second base this season, but is credited with 1 Defensive Run Saved and 2 Outs Above Average at shortstop. Ronny Mauricio is also being prepared to help out, though he hasn’t played shortstop since 2023.
