I don’t know that I’m putting Schwarber above Gagne even to this point, but with another contract it’s possible
So cool to see the GOAT Andrew Bellatti on here
Wheeler over McGraw?
Schmidt over Dawkins? Maybe I don’t know enough about pre-2000 baseball.
Lol @ 83 Papale
What would it take for Hurts to pass Parent?
Parent at 1 is odd to me.
I gotta give the edge to Jalen Hurts here. Both he and Bernie Parent are Philly legends who brought home titles, but Hurts’ dual-threat game, that 2025 Super Bowl MVP, and leading a stacked offense hit different. Parent’s two Stanley Cups are iconic, no doubt, but Hurts is killing it in today’s crazy-competitive NFL, especially with that revenge W against the Chiefs. Dude’s only 26 and already got a ring…. sky’s the limit for him becoming an all-time great.
I get putting Runyan, was a significant player for turing the Eagles around, but Dickerson is probably already better
Be interesting if Harper wins a WS or two before he goes off whether he can eventually eclipse AI. Same with Hurts/Parent
I know Bowa was a popular guy who played here a long time, but Realmuto is inarguably a better player than he was and I would easily put him on here for #10.
47 – Larry Andersen, with an ‘e’
Wheeler v. Tug is a tough call. No offense to Pedro.
Give Maxey #0!
List is incomplete. Where is number 0?- Maxey!
No shot it’s Westbrook over Robin Roberts for #36
Hawerchuk at 18 with his 67 games played in Philly over Richards is a choice.
You’re telling me 58 isn’t Papelbon??
/s
Hawerchuk over Richards alone makes this entire list not worth anybody’s time
