Who's Better?
DFS Contests
On any given day, Henderson will be about 20% more expensive to draft than Lindor. That's usually a worthwhile trade-off for the potential. Gunnar is a lefty so when there's a tough LHP on the bump, I may steer closer to Lindor (switch-hitter).
Lindor is also incredibly streaky. If he appears to be at the start of a new streak (FanDuel scoring hasn't caught up yet), Lindor can make for a high-value pick. As with most high-tier players, it's mostly about the day's matchup.
Roto Leagues
A classic comparison of vet and rook. Lindor's game is widely known. He's streaky, a free swinger and can put up big numbers... it's just difficult to predict when that will happen. Over the course of a full season, he'll get close to .270/.340/.825 (BA/OBP/OPS). Toss in 20+ bags and you have a top 5 SS.
Henderson has 3 full seasons in his MLB ledger. But, boy, what a first impression. Particularly in 2024, he's taken his game to a new level with a .280/.360/.900 stat line along with 20+ steals. All at the top of the lineup of a young, contending team. MVP-type stuff. Going forward, Gunnar is a first-round pick and in most cases, should be drafted ahead of Francisco.
