Top Ten Greatest San Diego Padres Players
My quest to get a "best players" list for all 30 teams continues.A great ballplayer, and a greater man!
He was an MLB Legend.
Better than Peavy on an all-time scale, though
He should be in the top 5 if he was a Padre for longer.
Sad state of affairs when this guy gets 11 percent of the votes
George was a traveling man, playing for 6 teams, San Diego was one of them, even though he wasn't a All Star, he did led the Padres in hitting in 1977, hitting .311 with 23 home runs and 168 hits. He wasn't a popular player, playing in the shadows of another great Padre player Dave Winfield, by 1978 he was out of San Diego and Joined the St. Louis Cardinals and re energize his career and one of the missing links the Cardinals needed to contend for a world championship, and it did in 1982 with a World Championship with George on their team.
