Francisco Lindor‘s quest for his first MLB All-Star Game start as a Met has taken a touching turn thanks to an unexpected campaign from home.
In a now-viral Instagram story, Lindor‘s daughters, Kalina and Amapola, appeared alongside their newborn brother with a playful but emotional message for fans.
“If you don’t vote for him, you’re personally insulting them,” read the caption, which quickly captured the attention of Mets fans and beyond.
The short video, shared by Lindor‘s wife Katia, was a lighthearted moment with real weight behind it.
It reminded fans that behind every great athlete is a family rooting just as hard for success as the fans in the stands.
Katia added her own encouragement: “Keep those votes coming! You can vote 5x a day until the 26th of this month. Let’s support our own.”
Support for Lindor grows louder
Mets supporters have answered the call. As of the latest update, Lindor leads all National League shortstops in All-Star voting, holding a sizable lead over second-place Mookie Betts.
He has received more than 1.64 million votes, and with the final phase of voting underway, he is closer than ever to earning his first All-Star start in a Mets uniform.
The numbers on the field match the push off it. Lindor is near the top of the league in WAR, extra-base hits, and defensive metrics.
But it’s the family element that’s giving this campaign a unique energy.
The Lindor children’s appeal is simple and sincere, showing fans a different side of a player often praised for his passion and charisma.
Their presence has added a personal layer to the campaign, reminding everyone that baseball is as much about heart as it is about stats.
This year, Lindor is putting up All-Star numbers at the right time.
He has frequently been snubbed in past seasons despite performing at a high level by July.
Now, that narrative seems to be changing. Fans are responding not just to Lindor‘s performance, but to the story unfolding around him.
His journey from being overlooked in New York to front-runner status in 2025 feels like a long-awaited redemption.
And the emotional support from his family might be the final push he needs. Voting closes June 26.
If Lindor holds on to his lead, it will be more than just a personal milestone.
It will be a moment of recognition not only for his play but for the family that helped carry the message.
For Mets fans and baseball lovers alike, it’s become a campaign impossible to ignore.

College Football Preview 2025: Florida State Seminoles
2024 Recap There’s no way around it: The 2024 season was a disaster for Florida State. After winning the ACC Championship in 2023 and finishing with a 13-1 record overall, the Seminoles entered 2024 as the No. 10 team in the preseason AP poll. But their brand new roster ultimately fell flat with just a 2-10 record, the program’s worst in 50 years. With pressure now mounting in Year 6, Mike Norvell brought in 23 transfers and coordinators Gus Malzahn (offense) and Tony White (defense). Those new faces should help the Seminoles at least reach bowl eligibility in 2025, but new quarterback Tommy Castellanos will determine the program’s true ceiling. Biggest Strength: What should be an improved offense… Florida State attacked the transfer portal this offseason to improve what was the Power Four’s third-worst offense by EPA per play. The […]

Cadillac se dohodl s prvním pilotem pro svou stáj F1
Spekulace o obsazení dvou nových jezdeckých míst ve formuli 1 se tak začínají měnit v realitu. Podle zahraničních médií dal Cadillac přednost Bottasovi před Sergiem Pérezem i dalšími kandidáty. Oficiální oznámení pětatřicetiletého Fina jako prvního závodního jezdce americké stáje v historii by mělo následovat příští týden.Bottas letos vynechává svůj první závodní rok po dvanácti po sobě jdoucích sezónách, během nichž působil ve Williamsu, Sauberu (respektive Alfě Romeo) a Mercedesu. V jeho barvách pomohl během pěti let k pěti titulům v Poháru konstruktérů.Po konci angažmá v Sauberu se vrátil do Mercedesu, kde zastává pozici rezervního jezdce. Opakovaně však uvedl, že mu pravidelné závodění chybí a jeho hlavní prioritou pro ročník 2026 je návrat za volant formule 1.Není zatím jasné, zda svou současnou roli v německé stáji opustí, nebo v ní setrvá až do konce roku. Jedno je však zřejmé – Cadillac chce ještě letos nasadit své jezdce do testování starších monopostů. Pravděpodobně k tomu využije dřívější modely […]
