Smacks long grand slam in win Lindor went 2-for-5 with one double, one homer, seven RBI and three runs scored in Friday's victory over the Athletics.

Impact Lindor's 439-foot grand slam broke the game open, extending the lead to 6-0 in the top of the second inning. The star shortstop's seven RBI also set a new career-high. This game was a sight for sore eyes for fantasy managers, as the Puerto Rican native was only hitting .237 coming into this game. The speedy veteran will look to build on this effort, and re-establish himself as one of the more dangerous threats in the Mets' lineup.

Productive in Wednesday's loss Lindor went 3-for-4 with two doubles, two runs scored and two RBI in Wednesday's loss to the Brewers.

Impact The shortstop put together his best performance on the young season, as he'd gone just 2-for-18 in the six games prior. Lindor is still looking for his first home run and first steal of 2023, but the counting stats will come as he continues to hit in the heart of the Mets' order.

Walks twice in blowout loss Lindor went 0-for-1with a pair of walks in Monday's loss to Milwaukee.

Impact The Mets were unable to get anything going against Freddy Peralta on Monday, but Lindor was at least able to reach twice with the free passes. The shortstop has posted a .381 on-base percentage over the first four games of 2023, but his .143 average and .214 slugging mark aren't exactly ideal in the small sample.

Slugs first spring homer Lindor went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's Grapefruit League game against the Marlins.

Impact The shortstop took Dylan Floro deep to right field in the third inning for his first homer of the spring. Lindor saw his numbers rise in his second season with the Mets last year as he drove in a career-high 107 RBI, but his .788 OPS was still a notch below the production he was flashing with Cleveland a few years ago. The 29-year-old should again hit in the heart of the Mets' order in 2023.
