That's easily the Mt Rushmore.
The Pitchers Three and Freddie (after a few more years and finishing his career with us) could all try to make a case, but it's hard to top the 4 listed.

Yea,I think Glavine has a better case already then Murph and Freddie eventually will.

Key word here is Atlanta so names like Spahn and Mathews don't qualify.

I'm too young to have seen him play, but Murphy isn't even in my next four in

Glavine or Smoltz over Maddux only because Maddux was successful as a Cub before coming here.
I’d put Smoltz over Glavine because of his work as a closer and starter.

Bobby Cox only wins one WS with the best pitching staff ever. I would put him on the over rated hof list

Then why is there a statue at Truist?
Why do the Atlanta Braves display three World Series Championship banners at Truist?
Atlanta Braves are the Milwaukee Braves are the Boston Braves and for that matter are, for all intents and purposes, the Cincinnati Red Stockings.
Who was the first retired number put up at Atlanta Stadium?
Fulton County part came later, in case you were wondering.
If you take away Aaron’s non Braves numbers, would he belong on on a Atlanta Braves Mt Rushmore?
Maybe, but it not a sure thing.
Aaron has more of a claim for a spot on a Atlanta Braves Mt Rushmore as an executive than a player.

What part of this do you not get?
Banners and statues at Truist have nothing to do with the question asked on this forum.
