Who Is Now the Current Face of Cleveland Professional Sports?

[Ohio]

Lindor, unfortunately another guy who will almost certainly be leaving in a few years. Hopefully we get a WS before then.

Lindor has waaaaay too many votes here

How does Lindor get 15 votes but Jose ZERO?! They should be a lot closer

Voted for Kluber hee hee!!!

Jose is locked up 2 more years than Lindor as well.

Lindor for the mainstream.

Jose for the hipsters.

Jose for the hipsters.

If by hipsters you mean the hardcore fans, then yeah I agree.

That's exactly what I mean.

When it comes to CLE sports I'm only a Cavaliers fan.

So from an outside perspective the most notable right now is Fransico Lindor. Dude has a personality and skill set that attracts attention and the Indians are a good team. If Browns eventually start tearing it up Baker will become the guy. Baker has the personality and plays QB so if he pans out it will def be Baker.

Stipe is the most dominant athlete. And the current champ. And a firefighter-paramedic. A real life hero. He should've been the face even with LeBron still here.

Given that it's Cleveland, I think it's going to be the QB of the Browns, so I said, Mayfield. But, I do like Stipe as the face of Cleveland sports. That's a bad man.

 

[STAY STRONG]

Nobody.

Lindor and it’s not close. Mayfield hasn’t even played a snap.

Honestly, Stipe needs more recognition in this city. UFC has one of the most marketable guys ever, not named Conor. And they fall short building him up, IMO. Stipe should be huge in this town, and it’s just not close.

I was at a Tribe game last year and Stipe was there. I only knew because my friend recognized him (I'm not a UFC fan). There were a few people that approached him, but most people (at least to me) didn't seem to recognize him. Great athlete, great story, but I think UFC is too much of a niche audience for most of their stars to have mainstream notoriety. Just my opinion though.
