    Yeah, I've been saying he's the best in the NL for a few months, but Putz is still the best in baseball, with Saito and Paps a close 2nd and 3rd.

    I am big believer in the East Coast bias. Half the country is asleep when Saito is closing out games, tough to get recognition this way.

    I think Joe Nathan is the best closer myself, without any comparison.

    Isringhausen (amazingly) deserves to be mentioned with the best this year.

    has totally saved their season and helped give them a chance to win the division..although once Soriano is back, the Cubs will roll to win the division at this point I think...Brewers totally blew it...Cards could sneak in...but Brewers are done
