I would be stunned if Trevor Hoffman got in first ballot. And while being a Padres fan my whole life leads me to hope he gets recognition, I'm also of the mind relievers, and closers in particular, are generally overrated. When the 300 saves club has accumulated a comparable amount of members as the 3000 hit club despite the save being a fairly new stat, it's a joke.
I'm having a hard time seeing anyone getting in from a closers standpoint other than Rivera. At least in terms of being a shoe in.
