The assignment: Establish the top 10 athletes who graced the Bay Area’s pitches, gridirons, diamonds, hardwood and ice during the soon-to-be-defunct decade.

The focus is on what happened here from 2010 to 2019, inclusive. So while we could easily have four Warriors on this team, we will not. And while we love you Tim Lincecum, your Cy Young years were in 2008-09, and thus you don’t make the cut for our purposes.

Even without Lincecum’s considerable star power and popularity, we still have an embarrassment of riches from which to cull.
