All-Time, Tony.

No doubt no brainer. Now, Trevor- also a no doubt no brainer even though Jake is having a Cy Young season and a lot of (not always good) press.

Gwynn to the Public

it was a HOF year for him, and even casual fans still look forward to him in the booth or at the stadium.

Jake is more of the face of the franchise for current player, as there is a 'buzz' in the stands when he pitches. You get the same buzz from Trevor, but never know when and if he will get in the stands. I have actually heard fans at the game route against the Padres in the 8th not to score so they would get to see Trevor. He is the face of the franchise the same way Big Foot is the face of Yellowstone.

For me it is Wiggins.
