534 saves on the same pitch. This guy has been saving games on the cutter for 15 years and no one has figgered it out yet. Hall of Fame easy. The guy only has one pitch and no one can hit it after all these years. Best ever??

His save numbers are inflated due to the enlarged strike zone at Yankee stadium in the top of the 9th.Comment -
Most dominant player probably in mlb history
Never fukkin loses in 15 fukkin years
He comes in GAME OVER
Never ever anything close to himComment -
i remember the games he's blown more than the ones he's saved.Comment -
As a Red Sox fan, I will point out, he is far and away the best of the modern Closers.Comment -
Will go down as a top 15 or top 20 player in the history of the game. It will be a very sad day in yankeeland when he hangs it up. There will never be another.Comment -
Im not sure if that explains why his numbers are better away from Yankee stadium ---Originally posted by pavyracerComment -
hahah mmmkay brocky. Meaning anytime you had money on the yanks he blew the save because you are a mush. Take a hike.Originally posted by Brock Landers
What a dumb ******* comment."This is why my basketball intelligence is unmatched on this site. I'm sure there are better cappers but no one can tell you the strategies of most coaches before the game even starts "

Best reliever ever. Post season ERA under 1. Still getting 30+ saves at 40.Comment -
but it is time to consider replacing him....and Jeter and Posada.
NYY would be stupid to not have signed that Mauer guy to catch if at all possible, or get an ace SS, or closer.Comment -
As a yanks fan he has been the greatest thing i have ever seen. The bad thing is that he only blew 2 games in his life that mattered and one cost the yanks the World series (gm 7 in zona) and the other cost the yanks the 5 peat.( gm 3 in cle div series in 2007). Well cant complain about him though cause he won so much. The most dominant pitcher of all times.Comment -
Will be tough for the Yankees when it's time for Jeter and Rivera to go. Hope they realize it and retire as Yankees.Comment -
best closer season ever, lidge in '08, almost made me believe in godComment -
2012... end of MOComment -
My favorite Player ALL TIMEComment -
G.O.A.T periodComment -
i know when i bet the yanks and they are winning going into the 9th, i light up my cigarComment -
He is simply the best....seems like every postseason you have all these other "top" closers in the game that had good regular season struggle in the playoffs....but not MoComment -
He came in 204 times when Yanks had a 3 run-lead to close the game. Yankees only lost once.Comment -
You're on crack. Eric Gagne's 2003 season is by far the best season ever for a closer and it's not even close to close to close to close...Originally posted by natasselurComment -
Scary stuff this dude has! Back in the day, most opposing teams knew it was over when Mo came in! Indeed one of the best of all time!Comment -
Yankee fans must take him for granted. They are in for a real shock when he's gone, and leading in 9th doesn't mean you've won. Just look at yesterday and today's games for the best examples of it.Comment -
when you remember a guys blown saves, that shows how few there are. i'm not a fan of the yankee organization, but much like jordan, you have to respect mo, jeter, and posada for what they have done and for how long. and if jeter was in his normal spot, that gonzalez hit is an out. i hate they didnt give jeter the mvp in 07. he has been so good for so long and had stats and was better for history for him to win than morneau. he has been the best player on the best team for over 15 years. now i feel old lol.Comment -
Surprised no one's mentioned Mo's humility and class. He doesn't have to dance around the mound like an idiot...just pitch and get guys out. Everything I've ever seen or read about him talks about how he is a true pro and down to earth. The only thing theatrical about Mo is when they cue up Enter Sandman as he comes out of the pen. Best. Closer. Song. Ever.Comment -

He's pretty good at throwing baseballs...Comment -
Well, if you start throwing that logic around then the stats of every player in the last decade shouldn't matter.Originally posted by Hotdiggity11
If Gregg Zaun was on steroids there is no reason to believe Rivera wasn't.Comment -
Mariano Rivera...
He's a closer, noone cares. A closer is your guy that can only throw one inning.
Any starting pitcher gets way more respect than that f-cking guy Rivera, closing for the best team in the league? OOOO what a tough gig!Comment -
Who is to say Mo hasn't? Pettitte and Clemens were. chuck knoblauch was. Jason Giambi. A-Rod... the team has been riddled with users on the most pressure packed team in the world. Sure, it's not likely that Mo, Jeter, or Posada ever did, but if Lance Armstrong, Barry Bonds, and other athletes never got caught by their individual sport, how many guys do you think still use and just don't get caught? My guess is a lotOriginally posted by Hotdiggity11Comment -
