Sarcastic F-wad
Who is the current “Face of the Franchise”?
I figure there are really only 3 contenders…
1) Logan Webb - the unquestioned Ace of the staff. Might be the best SP in the NL. Home grown and from the Bay Area (an As fan, unfortunately, but no one is perfect).
2) Matt Chapman - Arguably the best 3B in the game. Hard to have a FA only in his 2nd, but Chapman has dedicated himself to the org in a way few players do (similar to Hunter Pence).
3) Jung Hoo Lee - Like Chapman, hard to list a guy only in his 2nd season with the team, but technically, he is “home grown”, so that isn't really a knock against him. The marketing potential he brings and his zest for the game is contagious and the fans have really gravitated to him unlike anything they have done since Melky, probably.
I think all 3 have a very legit claim to the title. Gun to my head, I think I would have to give it Webb, but I could easily make a convincing argument for either of the other 2.
Who you got?
