What would it look like if you built the greatest Phillies team of all-time? Now, imagine if three people were trying to build it in a mock draft, forcing you to make decisions over the greatest at one position versus the need to fill another.

Each team had eight starting position players, five starting pitchers, one reliever, and one bench player.
