New York Mets star shortstop and NL MVP runner-up Francisco Lindor spoke about his leadership style with Foul Territory TV.
It seems that the New York Mets are as close as they have been to crowning a team captain since the iconic David Wright retired in 2018.
Of course, this potential captain is Francisco Lindor, who has emerged as the leader both on and off the field for the Mets.
When speaking about Lindor’s potential captaincy last week, Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said, “I’m not gonna lie, I’ve had some conversations with David [Stearns], I haven’t had any of those with Steve [Cohen], not sure if David had conversations with Steve but me and David talk about it.
“He’s already doing everything that a captain does, with the way he goes about his business, his actions, everything that he does off the field, not to mention what he does on the field. But watching guys, holding guys accountable, keeping it loose, keeping it fun but when it’s go time it’s go time,” Mendoza continued.

Lindor made a February 28 appearance on the Youtube channel: Foul Territory TV. At one point in the discussion, the four-time All Star was asked if he gives the younger Mets players a hard time.
“I talk a lot of *expletive,” Lindor said in a lighthearted tone. “If talking crap is a hard time, then yeah.”
