Tom Glavine (1987-2002, 2008)

Right up there with Maddux is Tom Glavine. Glavine outpaced Maddux in 1993 with 22 wins, thus making him the last pitcher to date to earn 3 straight seasons with at least 20 wins per season. In 1991-having a 2.55 ERA and winning 20 games, Glavine led the Braves to their first World Series in 33 years.

The game he is most famous for was Game 6 of the 1995 World Series against the Cleveland Indians. Glavine pitched 8 scoreless innings allowing only one hit, earning Atlanta the championship title. Glavine went on to win 244 games for the Braves and received the Cy Young award twice.
