    Thumbs Up 2014 AL Mariano of the Year

    So I know there's like a Rolaids Relief Pitcher of the Year or some gobbly gook. But since Mo' is retired, I'm renaming it the Mo Award. This will feature any type of reliever.

    FYI, there will be no Joe Nathan. And for hammer's sake, no Dave-o Robertson.

    i totally didnt expect you to have davis or betances on your list honestly. i thought you would do the usual mlb stupid way of doing things and just taking the top 8 in saves. go you!

    nah, I looked at everything, and considered their importance... I could have just listed KC's pen as a group since they were pretty bad ass.

    People forgot about Seattle's bad ass pen that led the ML in WAR as a unit with 3.5

    Re: 2014 AL Mariano of the Year

    I know next to nothing about how AL relievers have performed this year. So, I'm going to totally wing it and go based on.....ummm....performance against the Mets and random gut feeling.

    Sean Doolittle faced seven Mets. He struck out six Mets. One Met got a single. It took 28 pitches.

    Betances faced seven Mets. He struck out six Mets. The other Met grounded out. It took 27 pitches.

    Hmm. That's pretty close. So, Wade Davis' sub-1.2 FIP it is.
