Wells isn't the face of this team either. Roy Halladay is IMO.
Those points are both simply a matter of opinion.

If somebody hits 40 homeruns a year, but sucks it up defensively, strikes out a ton, and can't hit for a decent average..would that make them a franchise player?

Wells is the 5 tool player. Plain and simple. Name the last Jay that was an all-around better play than him. I think you would have to go back quite a ways.
