Because Blackmon has a diamond already and this might be their last year with BP's rights before he retires that's why I was thinking it might be him, but I'm also pulling for it hard.

Awards card, has to be someone with a LS card so they aren't retired, first name is 7 letters, last name is 8 letters. Let me hear some guesses. Only ones I've seen are Brandon Phillips, Charlie Blackmon, and Brandon Crawford. I think Crawford is doubtful since he got a POTM diamond, and Blackmon has a FOTF. I'm going to be so hype if it's BP haha

Its definitely Phillips. Obviously Blackmon would be a better card but this is probably Phillips’ last year in the game. He will get a card eventually
-
This one would make my month Awards Roberto Clemente. 1966 MVP. I don't think it will happen but you never know.

No way a surprise Clemente card would come as a lame headliner release...
He would be deserving of a Honus collection type reward, and pre launch hype. Not a headliner...

Hey the letters fit.

After the Cole Hamels teaser and reveal, I don't trust the number of question marks anymore.

Yes. This.
That was the one that clearly spelled out Paul Goldschmidt, but ended up being Hamels. -

Hearing someone else say it confidently has me really excited now. Hopefully it's a Silver Slugger instead of a Gold Glove but I'll take either.

That is the only one that hasn’t followed the question marks though out of 32. So mathematically there is a 97 percent chance its either Brandon Phillips or Charlie Blackmon
-
Highly doubt it’s Blackmon for defensive reasons alone. Blackmon is like JD Martinez and cant really get that high of an overall card because their defense tanks it.
Phillips will have the defense to be able to boost him to a 97+ and he plays 2B where it’s easier to boost OVR.

I second this.
Blackmon defense is too Bush league to warrant a 97. Philips 97 is a stretch, but not too big of a stretch -

Best card he’s had was his 95 SS last year. He always rakes for me. For it to be a 97 it will probably be a Silver Slugger instead of Gold Glove I bet

PLEASE BE CHUCK

PLEASE BE CRAWFORD

@sDiNo817 said in Tomorrow's Headliner:
it could also be "silver slugger" and then a last name.
my guess is Awards Charlie Blackmon (silver slugger Blackmon)I would absolutely love this card if it got to silver fielding. Such a glitchy swing.
-
Blackmon it is, his cards always rake. Feel like that was the one chance at BP and he won’t be in the game anymore
-
I’ve faced em a few times and every time he kills me. His bat speed looks like he is using a 20 oz bat. I will give em a go
-
Hopefully it's someone else. Blackmon, Crawford and Phillips are not appealing at all.

Edit : Guess it's Blackmon, just saw it on twitter. I'd much rather have him then Brandon Phillips. I find it a bit strange that we're getting him has a headliner at this stage when we had a much better Matt Kemp in headliners more then a month ago.
