Darren Daulton was easily one of the more popular players for the Philadelphia Phillies in the early 1990s, and he certainly deserved to be. Daulton, the Phillies Catcher for years would work his way to becoming one of the top Catchers of the NL and he would be named an All-Star in 1992, 1993, and 1995. Daulton would show rare power for a Catcher, as he had a pair of 20 Home Run/100 RB! Seasons (1992 & 1993), while he also finishing 6th and 7th in MVP voting in that time frame. It is worth mentioning that Daulton led all batters in RBIs in the 1992 season.
This by far is the most interesting ranking on the list of top 50 Philadelphia Phillies.
How cannot it not be?
Perhaps it is a surprise that Charlie Buffinton is ranked higher than other former more seasoned Phillies stars considering that the hurler threw for Philadelphia for only three seasons back in the 1890’s, but two of those years would see Buffinton as a Pitcher of the Year contender…if that award would have existed at the time.
