Port St. Lucy – Recently I was having a conversation with Francisco Lindor about his tracks in the Hall of Fame.
He mentions all the players he has grown, focusing on Carlos Bertran (he called “mentor”), Roberto Aromar, Derek Jeter, Barry Larkin and Jimmy Rollins. He said he was selected for the hall one day and “forever remembered at a baseball game.”
But he added that it is not part of his daily obsession. “I'm not going online and entering what they did, and I find my statistics and what I go every year,” he explained, mainly “their statistics would be better than mine.”
That's kind of truth. But it's not perfect. This is something I learned when I went online and started typing. Lindor has just completed his 30 seasons and he has generally stood in a really good place to replace his age (particularly in the shortstop) historically through his age, but specifically with the group he named.
