- MLBLindor Locks In, Yankees Flash, Angels Clean HouseLindor Puts Mets Future to Bed Story: Francisco Lindor told the Post he’s staying with the Mets for the long haul—no hedging, no “wait and see.” After years of trade rumors and contract chatter, the shortstop finally shut the door. Big Mike’s take: Good. The Mets need stability, and Lindor’s bat (career .274/.337/.470) and glove (Gold Glove finalist in ’25) are worth the long-term bet. If he stays healthy, this deal could age like fine wine—or at least like a solid middle-infield pairing with Lindor and McNeil turning double plays for the next half-decade. Yankees’ One-Night Miracle: Much Ado About Nothing? Story: The Yankees’ lineup woke up for one inning against a bad team and suddenly the Bronx is buzzing. Big Mike’s take: Cool your jets. A three-run outburst in the 4th against the Royals’ bullpen doesn’t erase two months of .220 team batting average with runners in scoring position. Judge is still slumping (.189 in August), Stanton’s knee is a question mark, and the rotation’s back

- MLBWhite Sox, Kimbrel, and Olson Power Moves Shake MLBPlayoff Picture Shifts: White Sox Grab Bye, Dodgers Left Out The Deal: As of today’s math, the White Sox are in line for a first-round bye while the Dodgers are on the outside looking in. That’s a gut-punch for LA and a golden ticket for Chicago—if the standings hold. Numbers don’t lie, and right now they’re singing for the South Siders. Kimbrel Cashes In: Royals Land the Closer The Skinny: Craig Kimbrel just inked an MLB deal with Kansas City. That’s a veteran arm with 400+ saves walking into a bullpen that needs a closer.
