Yes, we know that this is taking a while!

As many of you know, we at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the top 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we maintain and update our existing Top 50 lists annually.  We are pleased to present our pre-2026 revision of our top 50 San Francisco Giants.

As for all of our top 50 players in baseball, we look at the following: 

1.  Duration and Impact.

2.  Traditional statistics and how they finished in the Major League Baseball.

3.  Advanced Statistics.

4.  Playoff performance.

5. Their respective legacy on the team.

6. How successful the team was when he was there.

7. Respecting the era in which they played.

Criteria 1-4 will make up the lion’s share of the algorithm.  Please note that we have implemented this for the first time.  This has changed the rankings all throughout the board.

Last year, the Giants had a .500 record (81-81) and failed to make the playoffs.  There was one new entrant based on last year, and the new algorithm brought in another name.

As always, we present our top five, which saw one change.

1. Willie Mays
2. Barry Bonds
3. Christy Mathewson
4. Mel Ott
5. Carl Hubbell

You can find the entire list here.

According to the new algorithm, Christy Mathewson and Mel Ott switched their #3 and #4 rankings.

Tatis Jr., who was an All-Star and Gold Glove winner last season, moved from #7 to #5.  He was also 8th in MVP voting last year.

Logan Webb makes his debut at #46.

Kevin Mitchell returns to the list due to the new algorithm.

Notably, Brandon Belt and George Van Halten fell off the list.

We thank you for your continued support of our lists on Notinhalloffame.com.
