SATURDAY SURVEY.
Totally Tigers

Now that Miguel Cabrera has retired, the Tigers are without a franchise face for the first time in almost 2 decades. He held the position jointly with Justin Verlander when both were on the team.

A franchise face is the person most closely associated with an organization. He must be well-known to fans and have a strong performance record.

For the organization, this player puts more fannies in the seats, brings in extra revenue and sells more merchandise. His face is used in media presentations and sometimes even banners draped outside the ballpark. On national tv, he is the player used in their promos.

It is still too soon for the Tigers to select a franchise face. Most of their potential candidates are still too young and without much of a track record.

But when the time comes, which of these players do you feel is most likely to inherit the franchise face mantel? (We are limiting choices to players who have had at least a year on the roster.)

Which player is most likely to become the face of the franchise?

1. Kerry Carpenter

2. Riley Greene

3. Tarik Skubal

4. Spencer Torkelson

5. He is not yet on the roster.

VOTE
 
Shelby had a good early career and then sucked for awhile but showed promise as a RP last year. Not sure it moves the needle much. But he was cheap.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Totally Tigers

Happy Holidays (or Happy Holly Daze as we say around here) to all of our dear readers!

Whether it?s Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa or another holiday you celebrate during the month of December, we send our very best wishes to all of you during this special time.

And every one of you who read TT?s blogs are the gifts that keep on giving for us. It doesn?t matter if you comment regularly, sporadically or lurk silently in the background, TT loves you all and appreciates your loyalty. We look forward to keeping this blog fresh throughout 2024.

Here?s hoping that your holidays are merry and bright. And during this time (and with huge apologies to Clement Clarke Moore), may we dream that:

(sic) ?Twas the night before Christmas, when all through Comerica Park
Front Office execs were stirring, building a roster that not yet included Max Clark.
In hopes that top prospects will soon would be there;
The fans were nestled all snug in their beds;
While visions of new second- and third- basemen danced in their heads.
