Jeff Francoeur
Everyone is talking about him. Poz, and Grant, and Matt. He's played the equivalent of seven full years, and he's averaged around 1 WAR per 162 games, regardless of what system you choose. A solid fourth outfielder. Guys like that don't make the covers of magazines.
Below is a mockup of what Sports Illustrated WOULD have looked like if they did manage to actually put him on the cover. Good job on the photoshopper to even include a reference to The Natural, as well as making contemporaneous references for additional authenticity on the cover.
And for those interested in some sabermetric flashback, here's a timid one.?
