Who's the two best Los Angeles Dodgers in their history?
A lot of the young guys might not remember when Dodgers were relevant.

This is a tough one, lost of history.

The two I didn't see play would be Robinson and Koufax

If I had to pick two that I did see play I would probably go with Orel & Garvey with honorable mention to Mike Piazza

Yours?

If you would have seen him, you would agree there has yet to be another Koufax.

Duke might be okay, but the fact is, at that time he was the 3rd best CFer in NY and miles from the other two, Mays and Mantle

Campy has to be one..3 MVP's in a 5 year period

And Koufax

Surprised nobody has mentioned Fernando. He gave the Dodgers a huge boost of fan support when he came up. Fernandomania. Probably Koufax and Piazza.

Jackie Robinson and Gibson are the first two names that came to my mind when thinking Dodger greats

Gibson played 300 of his 1600+ games with the Dodgers. One very good year and two injury laden years and both were bust outs
