Fantasy Impact:

Lindor has typically hit leadoff for Cleveland since debuting in the league back in 2015. Batting third would lead to more RBI chances and likely fewer runs scored. It's unclear how it would affect his stolen base totals, but one imagines Lindor would still be running. He swiped 22 bases in 2019.
