Ditto. To me, both were at the top of the game for a time. Guys you go to the ballpark to see play. I ask myself, "During his career, was this guy the top, or very near the top, player at his position?"
So my four votes go to:
Dave Parker
Steve Garvey
Don Mattingly
Dale Murphy
For at least a handful of years, these guys were the best at their position in the majors.
