Didn’t negotiations between Lindor and the organization end in February 2020 before COVID shut everything down though? I suppose if COVID never hit, the two sides could have re-engaged on extension talks this winter but it always felt he was going to hit free agency regardless.
I think Frankie was always going to hit FA and was always going to sign with the team offering him the most, and that was never going to be the Indians. Maybe Covid killed whatever chance there was of an extension, but it was a really small chance in the first place IMO. I'm at peace with it.
