I think he is in the top 20 best pitchers. He's a good guy who we never hear much about.

He ranks as a great pitcher but not amongst the best. He's a Hall of Famer and that's it. Even Greg Maddux a former teammate probably ranks higher than Glavine. There are some pitchers not in the Hall that rank higher, like Bert Blyleven. Look up his Stats.

That's just my 20 and being 8 isn't that bad. If you gave me a book than I might be able to go further. If you need any more help on baseball questions just ask me. evandavis17@yahoo.com if you want my email.

I think it's really difficult to try and rank pitchers today with pitchers of the past, with the way the game has changed. And, in the end, does it really matter? All that matters is that he's a great pitcher and definitely a hall of famer.

Overall in the top 20-30. As a left hander probably top 20.

I think he makes top 100, hes not flashy so he'll never get the credit he really deserves, and I think if he had played most of his career on a better team than the Braves, or even a more popular team, he would've had more wins and more recognition

Without making a list I'd say he ranks somewhere between 35-50.

He's a solid lefty, but doesn't rank in the top 50 pitchers ever to play. one of the more reliable of his era; to his credit.
