Robinson Cano: Why was suspended| Trade| Contract| Wife
Why was suspended:
A day after the star shortstop said he wouldn’t be happy if the club dumped Cano in order to trim its roster down to 26 by Monday’s deadline, the Mets followed through with the decision.
“Sad,” Lindor said after the Mets fell to the Braves 5-2 at Citi Field. “I didn’t want to see him go, but I respect the team’s decision. He’s a great guy, great teammate.
Trade:
The move was expected to resonate in the clubhouse, where the 39-year-old Cano was well-liked, but Lindor said it was tough to tell on Monday because players had a late report time and then quickly turned their attention to the game once they arrived at Citi Field.
I wish I [could] spend more time with him, continue to learn about the game and different things that he has been through in life. But at the end of the day, I’m with the New York Mets and I respect their decision.”
