Is this the best pitcher triple auto card of all time?

[netmasters]

Is there a better combo of pitchers on one triple auto that this Gibson, Ryan, Pedro? I guess technically the 2022 Chrome Sonic Pedro, Randy Johnson, Maddux were better pitchers but these 3 on 1 card is so much cooler to me.

I would say if the card is missing paul skenes the answer is no

All joking aside Koufax has to be on the card for me to consider it the best pitcher triple auto of all time

I'd say Koufax, Nolan Ryan, Randy Johnson/Pedro maybe

there's a Koufax/Ryan/Kershaw on ebay that I know of which is prob best one I've ever seen. I know there are a bunch of Koufax/Kershaw triple usually with fernando or some other dodger.

The Maddux/Glavine/Smoltz is not the best but probably the coolest for nostalgia

[boxbuster7]

Verlander could even make a case for being on it. Even roger clemens.

Ryan is definitely a lock

I'd say the other 2 slots are up for debate

[cjraleigh]

"Best" is subjective, but it's tough to beat that Ryan/Koufax/Kershaw. BTW, that seller has a lot of really cool/seldom seen Kershaws listed right now.

From a single franchise Mt. Rushmore perspective, my vote goes to this one:

Not a triple autograph, but it's my favorite Ryan/Gibson.

My opinion only - I don’t disagree with yours tho

heard this was the best triple auto ever made. On card also, 9 copies signed only 7 signed for Skenes. Modern pitchers cannot go the distance.

The AI made skenes look like somebody else

[livfreely]

I’d need Randy on there

Nolan, Randy, Maddux. Anything else can kick rocks.

I agree.

I'm not sure why Nolan is in the same class as Randy or Maddux -- he didn't even win a single Cy Young Award, while the others won several.

He stayed on the field for 27 years and struck out more hitters than anyone in history.

Tell us your 3 picks - let’s see if we can find any way to criticize any of them

I told ChatGPT to create a relic autograph card of Ohtani, and the result looked like what 45 year old Ohtani would look like. Oh, and he was depicted hitting as a righty.

As for best all-time pitcher triple auto, not sure if it exists, but a triple of Pedro/Big Unit/Maddux would be my personal grail triple auto pitcher card, especially since they all were active at the same time and I watched them all pitch countless times.

I hate Clemens but I can’t deny how good a pitcher he was. 3rd highest WAR for a pitcher. Maddux is 8th. fwiw, Nolan comes in at #20

Using WAR as a barometer for “best,” the best possible combination of players for a triple auto is Clemens, Seaver (7th) and Maddux

Hobby wise he isn't in the same class as those 2. He is above them.

I'm pretty sure Koufax is above Nolan, though.

Yes, Koufax and Ryan are the top 2 postwar pitchers in the hobby. A triple auto with both is the best all time.

A card I wouldn't mind adding to my collection is a Ryan/Ohtani dual auto. Would be pretty cool to whip that out because most people wouldn't think of them being on the same card despite both being Angels for a time.

I mean 7 no hitters, the all-time K king, and beat Robin Ventura's head like a drum. Nuff said. LOL

1972-1974 Ryan finished in the top 10 CY votes. In '73 and '74 he should have won, especially given the records he set in those two years. 20 plus wins, ALL-Time single season Strikeout record, ERA's of 2.87 and 2.89.....on TERRIBLE Angels teams who did not score when he pitched. Plus, the media was obsessed with Jockey-boy Palmer in Baltimore at the time.

I'd go with Ryan, Maddux, Unit ... since Clemens cheated.

All-timers (can't get ink), I'd want a triple-mem card of Mathewson-Young-Ryan
