2. Armando Benitez-2006
3. B.J Ryan-2008
4. Mariano Rivera-2008
5. Eric Gagne-2006

K, Forbes lists are so fucking frustrating to read. Their justification of a closer being a bust is how many more games did the team win with the guy on the roster.

HOW THE FUCK IS MARIANO RIVERA A BUST!

God, Forbes has released other lists and they all look like they've been written by a guy who just looked at a couple stats.

Take B.J Ryan for example. He's apparently a bust becase he got hurt one year and the team didn't win many more games with him i, not taking into account that the Jays have one of the worst hitting clubs in baseball.

For Rivera, was it his fault that the Yankees had problems with the rotation and their middle relief?

They released a list before ranking the top enforcers. Zack "huggy bear" Strotini made the list, even though he's won 4 fights in 2 years and is geenrally regarded as an embarassment in the NHL.
