Top Three Franchise Players- Pirates

1. Honus Wagner- Known as one of the best shortstops to ever play baseball. This Hall-Of-Famer helped the Pirates win the 1909 WS. He had a career batting average of .327, along with 3415 career hits.

2. Roberto Clemente- Spent his whole 18 season career with the Pirates. He had one of the best outfield arms, and a great bat to go with it. He won two WS with the Pirates, and had a career average of .317, he also had a career 3000 hits. Also a Hall-Of-Famer.

3. Willie Stargell- Stargell is also a Hall-Of-Famer. He spent his whole career with the Pirates and helped them win two WS titles. He had a career batting average of .282.

Nailed it, Cougar. As much as I like Maz, the trio's got to be Clemente, Wagner and Pops. Clemente #1, though.

Re: Top Three Franchise Players- Pirates

I'd take Paul Big Poison Waner over Pops...the man had over 3,000 hits and a .333 career average...and his brother was no slouch either.

Thanks, I was really stuck between Clemente and Wagner.
