Chipper jones is arguably the best offensive 3B of all time... His problem was his defense... Yes Matt Williams was a pretty good defender, but he was not good enough to make up for the huge offensive difference between the 2 players...

I am a HUGE Matty fan, but this one is a no-brainer.

This one sucks for Matty, I enjoyed watching him play.

This is a best-of-all-time poll, afterall, so some of these are going to happen.

If we were to have some kind of in-depth seeding discussion, though, I would assume Matty would have been given a more-favorable draw. Chipper is a legit top 5 3B all-time.
