An alleged Brandon Nimmo-Francisco Lindor rift was rumored by one talking head last season. But it’s so wrong it needs clearing up.
Not to say the Mets’ clubhouse was perfect last year, but the idea there was some real rift between Lindor and Nimmo is a bunch of bunk, according to many people (and Lindor, too).
One person in the know called the rumor “bogus.” And Lindor told The Post, “Nimmo and I are brothers. I love him. I love him. He’s a great guy. He’s missed around here — good teammate, good person, good family man.”
The B.S. story was supposed to be a split over politics, but multiple people say they never heard either player talk politics around the team. No upside to that!
