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. As such, we are delighted to present our pre-2026 revision of our top 50 Atlanta Braves.
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 Red Sox struggled in the first half and, shockingly, traded their star, Rafael Devers, which led many to believe Boston had given up on the season. The reverse happened: the team had an excellent second half and made the playoffs with an 89-win season. Boston lost to the New York Yankees in the Wild Card, but it was a good year overall.
As always, we present our top five, which remain unchanged.
1. Ted Williams
2. Carl Yastrzemski
3. Roger Clemens
4. Wade Boggs
5. Cy Young
You can find the entire list here.
As indicated earlier, Devers was the only player who was active last year on the Red Sox roster. He moved up to #39 from #44.
We thank you for your continued support of our lists on Notinhalloffame.com.
