Stats arguments and comparisons are rarely concrete or objective. It's mostly bar talk.
My comments were geared toward collector demand and collectability. Based on those parameters I don't think the others mentioned surpass Clemente. Parker is relegated to the dollar box and while here in Detroit, I can lay out a table of Kalines and sell them all, eBay sales do not match that demand. Clemente out paces Kaline sales by a country mile.
This that was said earlier is my experience:

3. Clemente
It’s a shame but people don’t have as hard of time letting go
Of Mays, Aaron, and Koufax.

Yup I thought we were talking about collecting too.
Still a lot of cool stats that are blowing my mind.
