What I want to see for Team Captains is past Face of the Franchise type players. As a fan of particular teams I'm scratching my head wondering why the bulk of the Captains players that came up through a team but play for a different team now. If I were a Yankees fan I would be excited to use Whitey Ford and Don Mattingly as my Captains but those players are synonymous with the Yankees. As a Reds fan I'm like why are Sonny Gray and Eugenio Suárez my captains? Both were great players but neither is a "Face-of-the-Franchise" player. Each team has wealth of past legends so why not pull from those for captains? SDS is correct to make them 87 overalls but that is already fitting players into an OVR mold. As a Reds fan give me an 87 OVR of José Rijo or Rob Dibble as my pitching captain and and 87 OVR of Barry Larkin or Johnny Bench as my Captain. If I were a die hard Cubs fan I would want an Ernie Banks. As I pirate I would want Roberto Clemente. I guess they were aiming for players that wouldn't interfere with playing the best version of Barry Larkin but I think I would rather choose between an 87 OVR Larken Captain and say a 99 OVR Larkin awards but then there aren't very many players with multiple versions within Season 1. At least I would have a player on my team that everyone would think of as a Reds player.
Just food for thought and something I've been chewing on this year.

@TheCatHerder42_PSN I agree that sounds good to me, I'm not very keen on the idea of giving us multiple of the same person like on the xp path this season it's the same three over and over kinda stupid to me.

We literally just got 4 new ones???

Captains are lame anyway.. makes it unrealistic. Stanton with 90 speed is lame and u realistic. I'm not a fan of the captains just my 2 cents
