I guess Votto is the face. Or he is the 5th best guy on a bad team.
Still the face. MVP
-
Lorenzo Cain isnt anywhere near the face of the Brewers.

You heard them say why they picked who they picked, right?
You weren't gonna get a FotF Trout, Freeman, or Yellich b/c they didn't want to just repeat diamonds. They wanted to spread the wealth.

Yes, I agree. But they should have titled it differently, Face of the Franchise implies the one player most fans associate with that team.

I would say Tatis is the face of the franchise for the padres, same with Buster for the Giants. Also, I would say Mancini is the face of the franchise for the O's, he might be the only player non O's fans can name..
I can name their entire SDS starting lineup at this point thanks to them being the team of choice for offline grinding lol
-
Well they can’t just give all the dudes that already have high diamond cards another diamond so
-
I love what they did with the face of the franchise. The base players aren’t good enough to start, but the FOTF versions are. That means you can get the actual stars of the team, which are mostly diamond live series cards, plus a boosted lesser player. It’s great.

I don’t think you pay Machado all that mo way for him NOT to be the face of the franchise. Buster and Mancini...maybe. But I think they fit into that best guy on a horrible team situation

That's cool and all, but I dont think any Brewer fan is all that excited for Cains card. Couldve been Woodruff or Hiura and it wouldve been much more interesting.

I just think Tatis is the more popular player right now, which plays part in the “face of the franchise” type player

You know the series is called FaceS of the franchise right? None of these are exactly crazy choices
Well if that is the case EVERY player has a face. So therefore EVERYONE on the 40 man roster is a face of the franchise
-
Lol and Blackmon is perfect for Colorado, called that one.

Ok sure...so it’s non-diamonds only..They still missed the mark on a number better choices
LeMahieu, Machado, Thor, Suarez, Semien, Jensen, Story, etc
Btw...how is Harper a diamond and Soto not.

Lemahieu played for the yankees for 1 season and isn't a homegrown talent, I can see where you see Machado has the contract but Tatis is still the face of the padres, Thor makes sense, can't disagree with that one. Votto literally is the face of the Reds and has been for 15 years. Suarez has has one good season. Olson has been in Oakland his entire career and has been a consistently good player, semien has had 2 good seasons, Jansen is a relief pitcher, IMO that can't be anywhere associated with a face of the franchise unless you are Mariano Rivera, Story is a diamond, thus why he is not.

Cardinals as well. Yadi is no doubt the face of the franchise.
-
Josh Bell for the Pirates... would probably be a legitimate “face.”
-
Peralta works for the Dbacks. But some teams they kinda had to be creative and do different players. Trout is obviously the face of the franchise for the Angels. But did anyone who’s played for awhile really expect a free Trout card? Probably not.
-
We’re really grasping at anything and everything to get a little upset about on here now huh? The FOTF are fine. A lot of them are representing the players that have the longest tenure on their given team or it’s because the actual FOTF is already Diamond.
Thor is the only one that I would agree with you, he would have been a way better choice for the Mets.
That Lorenzo Cain card is Booty cheeks too. Should have been Ryan Braun or Keston Hiura. It’s possible they are going to release some these down the road in the team affinity’s as different card types like flashback hardware, breakout, all-star, rookie. We will just have to wait and see.
-
Every FOF card is correct except the cubs. You should be originally signed or drafted by that team and Rizzo was not so I don’t see how he is but that’s why machado can’t be the padres FOF
