Lindor out 2 Months (2/8)

[revo]

Calf strain

That's some calf strain. Crap!

When Josh Donaldson had this it screwed up his whole season.

[Art Vandelay]

he'll miss virtually entire st, which, to me, is big.

how much do you knock off his projected salary? I had him for $31 in an a.l. only 12 team'er. I may float his name out there for trade...

So how far will he fall in a standard re-draft league? I had him as the clear-cut #4 player available, but as of today, I'm not sure if I'd take him in the Top 20. Thoughts?

[Mithrandir]

So how many games will he miss? Two weeks , three weeks, all of April?

Who knows? I'd assume all of April, but like jc said, a similar calf injury wrecked Donaldson's season last year, and Lindor depends much more on speed than he does.

Machado goes 14th in ADP since 1/1.
Altuve goes 15th.
Story goes 19th.

I like Story more than that so it's hard to say, but if he misses a couple weeks and doesn't have a real ST, I think he's going to be in this group.

Then you have a bunch of sluggers and pitchers.

Blackmon goes 26th, Benintendi 29th, Merrifield 30th.

Would you take any of those over Lindor right now? I don't think I'm there yet.

If you wanted a SS with a mid-1st round pick, I think Bregman has leaped over Lindor as of today.
