The Mets closed out the ceremonial first half of the season with one of their most disappointing losses of the year, as Francisco Lindor's costly ninth-inning error reignited calls from some fans to move on from the star shortstop. Mike revisits the Lindor trade conversation from earlier in the week, explaining why such a move is not only highly unlikely but would also complicate any realistic plans to contend in 2027.
