Mariano Rivera

My objection is the saves are so cheaply awarded they accumulate like pennies in a drawer.

Objection noted and possibly valid to some extent. But when one guy is able to accumulate 2 or 3 times as many pannies as vast majority of his peers and more than anyone in history... I would say he qualifies as one of the best "savers" ever.

HOFer without a doubt. I would like to see a list of save pct. leaders.

Thanks for the article. exactly my point. As for Gagne -he was roided up during those 3 years

Another Red Sox fan who has a ton of respect for Rivera and most surely should be a 1st ballot selection.
