Yeah, I’m well aware of what Lindor did in Cleveland as a life long Cleveland fan. I agree, I should have written a better/clearer response.

Lindor, as with numerous others, sign these ridiculous type contracts, and usually never live up (produce) to, or even close to, what was anticipated. So yeah, IMO these contracts should be weighted heavily on productivity, etc. IMO, it’s a joke and complete lunacy. There’s not really much “incentive” when the majority of the coin received will result anyways whether they produce (to the contract level) or not.

100% your opinion relative to your top 5 sentiment.

I doubt very much that the Mets, when they signed Lindor, expected him to bat .230 his 1st season and .213 currently in his 3rd.

He’s a lead off/higher in lineup batter, so his contribution is quite unsatisfactory on that front, regardless of what other contributions he makes at short. I’ve seen a lot of routine, ordinary type fielding plays from him, especially at the major league level, nothing  extraordinary IMO.
