Best Closer in Baseball this year

I may be the only guy to vote for him, but my vote goes to Danny Kolb, he has been SICK this year.

I watched him today! He has never given up an extra base hit! pretty good

All of them are deserving to be on this poll but come on.

 

It's Gagne, he's in a league of his own and he use to have to share that with Smoltz and Rivera.

A few numbers on these guys:

 

RP Armando Benitez 26 1.11

 

RP Eric Gagne 21 1.54

 

RP Danny Graves 31 3.02

 

RP Francisco Cordero 24 1.85

 

RP Joe Nathan 23 1.19

 

RP Mariano Rivera 29 0.86

 

RP Danny Kolb 24 0.87

 

The Numbers after the names are total saves and ERA

until Gagne streak is broken, Gagne is the man. Stats go out of the window. He does his job, and doesn't blow the saves

Agreed. Gagne has to blow one before he can get dethroned.

 

Urbina has sucked.

Do any of you all who voted for Gagne want to now change your vote??

 

:)

Naw. I'm gonna keep my vote. He's only blown one and that's pretty darn good.

My pick Kolb has also only blown 1, with a lower ERA and more save chances than Gagne.

 

Ditto for Joe Nathan.

actually the Giants had plans to put him in the rotation, but then they decided Yorvit Torrealba wasn't ready to be an everyday starter so they traded for Pierzynski and then picked up Bret "can't pitch for s***" Tomko
