Greatest Padre Player in Team History...

Okay, far from the greatest team on record...do they have an all-time best palyer ever?...how about Winfield? was he there long enough?...an ace reliever like Fingers or Hoffman? Two year wonder Randy Jones? Peavy?

Re: Greatest Padre Player in Team History...

Why is this even a discussion? Does the name TONY GWYNN ring a bell?

I was going down the posts and couldn't believe Gwynn was not on the list. He is their greatest player ever. He may be the best hitter that I have seen play...maybe Rose is up there too.

Hey it was late, and I was thinking of some poor Padre teams...of course no one has had a better Padre career then Tony...I think with their poor history this could be a no contest...except for Garth of course.

Cool Re: Greatest Padre Player in Team History...

I think it has to be Tony Gwynn or Dave Winfield, no?

Gwynn over Winfield because of his Yankee times...but Hoffman and 500 saves deserve a mention.

Like you overlooking Gwynn, I overlooked Hoffman. He should also be mentioned as a finalist. I would take him as #2.
