Arguably the best closer in the game IMO...

He&#x27;s not better than Rosenthal or Jansen IMO

&#xD;&#xA;Well, he certainly was tonight, especially since he had to get 4 outs to end it

Hey BayArea- How did you do on your Live Wagers tonight

I was up, luckily after I took Cardinals Large after Hammel left, but then got stupid on some late overs in the Dodgers game, not thinking that Kershaw would come in for the 8th, let alone the 9th Just needed 1 run from 7th Inning on and couldn't get it, from either team. Thought that was going to be given to me on a platter

Sure. I&#x27;ll concede that there are others who are arguably better.That said, the OP wasn&#x27;t arguing that Street is the best closer in the game. He called him a "POS," "clown," and cites some random game years ago in which Street (God forbid) blew a save.I remember a time when Mariano Rivera blew a save. In fact, he blew 76 regular season saves. He also blew one in Game 7 of a World Series.It&#x27;s baseball. Hitters strike out. Closers blow saves. Sometimes things don&#x27;t go your way.Posters like the OP have no interest in facts. They&#x27;d much rather complain and gripe than employ any sort of rational perspective.
