I was honestly surprised to see how many people preferred Reyes over Lindor. Now for the sake of this argument we are considering the IE boosted Lindor, from my experience he usually has the +12 R,R boost and I will pick him over Reyes every time when he does. I will concede that Lindor with no IE or with L,L boost he is not as good as the Reyes. and Reyes is far and away better on the basepaths. Now I realize that Reyes card says that it is a diamond fielder but in game he is only a gold. Thanks for reading and please, try to keep it civil , everyone is entitled to their opinions!
The Numbers:
Jose Reyes, Francisco Lindor (The number on the left is Jose's stat and the Right Lindor)
Con R: 78, 82
Con L: 99, 90
Power R: 50, 78
Power L: 54, 62
Vision: 90, 84
Speed: 97, 70
Stealing: 96, 32
Arm Strength: 83, 76
Arm Acc: 78, 80
Fielding: 82, 90 (90 is the diamond threshold and is displayed with a light blue under fielder in game)
I love Reyes! Haven't tried Lindor except for in moments but Lindor does have I nice swing. Honestly I should replace Joe Morgan at 2nd base with Lindor
Lindor has one of my favorite swings in this game. So many clutch hits and always seems to find a gap. I realize I am in the minority here, but I have struggled to hit with Reyes.
A point to consider if you're looking at which one to get, Reyes is likely 60k cheaper. But if you have both already my vote is for Franky.

Yep! I do have em both and I 100% agree with you. I think most people go with Reyes just because of the speed and stealing ability but dont want to admit it.

IT's a fine card. But there's somethign about Lindors swing that can't be accounted for with stats. I used his swing on my CAP for the longest time.

Replace The Cog in the big red machine with Lindor? Not a chance!

Personally you always want to go with a Live Series that has an Inside Edge advantage.

intersting.. why do you say that? Even if the OVR is still less with the IE boosted player? My point in this thread was to have them at equal OVR and see if people went Lindor
I rotate them back and forth quite a bit at SS and sometimes play lindor at 3rd and Reyes at short. “I think lindor has one of the best swings In game. He’s my cap swing too.”

Sometimes having the boosted contact/power makes the Live Series card the better card to use especially if the same handed pitcher is pitching. For example say one day Lindor IE is boosted for Con vs R and Pow vs R... he already has the advantage there over Reyes so you'd want to use him... personally Reyes is a favorite of mine so I'd probably use him anyway but taking my Mets fandom out of the equation I'm using Lindor unless I need a better threat on the basepaths at which point that's where Reyes has a clear advantage even though Lindor is no slouch and can take the extra bases on batted balls even if he isn't necessarily a base stealing threat like Reyes would be.
