Phillies All-Decade Team: Third base

As the 2010s wind down, PhilliesNation.com will go position-by-position in determining the Philadelphia Phillies All-Decade team.

The Candidates

The Philadelphia Phillies had three different third basemen that started on Opening Day multiple times in the 2010s. Plácido Polanco was the Opening Day third baseman from 2010-2012. Cody Asche got the nod in both 2014 and 2015, while Maikel Franco was the decade leader with four straight Opening Day starts at the hot corner from 2016-2019. These three players make up the candidates for the Phillies All-Decade third baseman.

Plácido Polanco returned to the Phillies in 2010.
