BP was a way better player than I ever thought he would be when we claimed him and he's up there with the all-time great Reds. Thanks for some great years.
Ehhhhh...
Sticking to players in the modern era, that would put him in the same category as Johnny Bench, Joe Morgan, Pete Rose, Frank Robinson, Joey Votto, Jose Rijo, Barry Larkin, George Foster, etc. He's certainly not up there with them.
Phillips probably squeaks in the bottom of the next tier behind folk like Tony Perez, Ted Kluzewski, and on par with the Mario Soto, Jim Maloney, Eric Davis, and Johnny Cueto-type Reds careers, and right above the Adam Dunns/Jay Bruces.
