Overview

With a 130+ year history, the Philadelphia Phillies are an institution in professional baseball. From Recreation Park to their current home at Citizens Bank Park, the Phillies have produced Hall of Fame players like Robin Roberts, Richie Ashburn, Grover Cleveland Alexander, and Mike Schmidt. But a debate rages on: how do the great Phillies stack up among one another?

In Ian Riccaboni's Phillies Nation Presents The 100 Greatest Phillies of All-Time, Riccaboni answers this question with insightful analysis, using both traditional and advanced metrics, with profiles dedicated to each Top 100 player. The book is jam-packed with lists that are sure to spark debate, including the greatest trades, free agent signings, and draftees in club history. The 100 Greatest Phillies of All Time features interviews with top players and is edited by award-winning editor Barbara Morris, with contributions from Philadelphia sports anchor Pat Gallen.
