After finishing second in NL MVP voting and leading the Mets to the NLCS in 2024, Francisco Lindor is off to a slow start in 2025. In the Mets’ opening series against the Astros, Lindor went hitless in 11 at-bats, picking up one RBI on a sacrifice fly. Lindor then missed the Mets’ first game of their series against the Marlins in Miami to witness the birth of his child. Technically, Lindor actually made it back for Monday night’s game, but Carlos Mendoza kept Lindor on the bench after the whirlwind 48 hours he had spent traveling across the country, sleeping in a hospital and exerting a lot of emotion. However, Lindor is expected back in the lineup for game two of the series against Miami on Tuesday night.
The Mets will be facing the Marlins’ ace, Sandy Alcantara, on Tuesday night. Alcantara missed all of 2024 after getting Tommy John surgery but was back to be the Marlins’ Opening Day starter last week. Alcantara threw just 4.2 innings against the Pirates, giving up two runs in the Marlins’ win. In this divisional battle, there will be a lot of familiarity between Alcantara and the Mets’ lineup. Besides the Phillies, Alcantara has thrown more innings against the Mets than any other team in his career. Francisco Lindor has now faced him nine times and had really solid success against him. Lindor has a career .280 batting average against Alcantara with seven RBIs in nine games. Lindor has been great against the Marlins in general in his career. His tOPS+ against Miami is 119, the fifth-highest mark for Lindor against any team.
My favorite prop for this game is for Lindor to record over 1.5 total bases. Lindor should quickly break his hitless streak and contribute to the Mets’ offense. It isn’t exactly a scientific trend, but the last time Lindor missed a game for paternity leave in 2023, he hit a home run in his first game back. Francisco Lindor has shown in the past that he can hit off of Alcantara, and Alcantara did not look his best in his first start back from Tommy John surgery. With the protection of Juan Soto right behind him in the Mets’ lineup, Lindor should get some good pitches to hit and officially get his 2025 season going in this game.
