No, 1 save is not a big deal you're right.

But when someone can come in 40 or so times in a season and close out games then it is important. The reason the save category is looked at so highly is because a team needs someone that they can trust to give the ball to night in and night out and be confident that 45 out of 50 times that person is not going to let them down.

Plus that is a lot of wear and tear on that guys arm to have to warmup in the pen 3 or 4 times a week and then have to go in and throw as hard as you possibly can.
