I agree that Dizzy doesn’t fit on that list.
He only won 150 games.
I did enjoy his play by play work as an announcer. Didn’t he work with Pee Wee Reese?
Now, Maddux would not belong on the list either. He was a better pitcher than all those listed.

Admittedly Dizzy Dean wasn’t the best choice, though I would take him over Glavine.

But again try

Cristy Mathewson, Walter Johnson, Bob Feller, Sandy Koufax, Bob Gibson, Tom Seaver, Tom Glavine

Which one doesn’t fit?

Hell Glavine isn’t even up there on a list of best pitchers of his Generation

Maddux, Randy Johnson, Pedro Martinez, Roger Clemens (even without the PED), Oral Hershiser, Mariano Rivera were all more dominant than him
