Best wait: Francisco Lindor

Everything about Francisco Lindor screams future star. He’s got the glove, he’s capable with the bat, and he brings a youthful swagger to the Indians that’s been missing for a long time.

It’s still early, but it’s obvious how much better the Indians are on defense with Lindor in the game. He committed four errors in his first 61 chances, but he still has a +1 DRS and a UZR/150 of 18.6. The future is bright and not going away at shortstop.

If only he could’ve been here sooner.
