Player Notes
June 28, 2008
Mariano Rivera worked a perfect ninth inning helping the Yankees defeat the Mets 3-2 on Saturday afternoon.

Our View:Rivera has yet to blow a save this year in 22 chances.
June 15, 2008
Mariano Rivera is 38-years old but rarely is he thought of as old, or past his prime. In fact the right-hander is showing no indication he is regressing as a pitcher. The Yanks closer is 18 for 18 in saves; and his 0.87 ERA, 9.3 K/9 and 0.9 BB/9 can't be ignored.

Our View:After watching Papelbon blow his third save of the season on Saturday, to match his total of 2007, it's hard to consider him the automatic he was in April or even the top closer in the game without mentioning Rivera.
June 11, 2008
Yankee reliever Mariano Rivera has appeared in four consecutive games, but manager Joe Girardi has hinted they will not look his way tonight, according to MLB.com.

Our View:Girardi was asked about Riveria's workload before the game and noted that he had intended to leave him be on Tuesday night as well, but Rivera was up and stretching before he realized what was going on in the bullpen. Tonight, he should have the day off.
June 11, 2008
The Yankees keep trotting Mariano Rivera out to the hill. The closer picked up his 17th save by tossing a scoreless inning against the A's on Tuesday night. Rivera has now worked four straight games. He allowed runs on Saturday and Monday.

Our View:With Joba Chamberlain in the rotation, the Yankees clearly aren't taking any chances with the game on the line. We imagine Rivera won't be available on Wednesday night, no matter what the scenario.
June 2, 2008
Mariano Rivera has been named the AL Player of the Week, according to the AP. He earned the honor by nailing down three saves, with seven strikeouts, and only one hit allowed.

Our View:He is a perfect 15-for-15 on saves opportunities, and lowered his ERA to 0.36. He ranks third on the all-time saves list, but this is his first Player of the Week honor.
