Billy Wagner : The Best Lefthanded Reliever Ever.

[metirish]

Mets have some of the best ever and this fella(who ever he is) rates wagner as the best...

Billy wagner

Rob Neyer had this to say.

] • Baseball Crank rates the greatest left-handed relievers and comes up with Billy Wagner as No. 1 all-time. I'm not saying he's wrong (though I'd prefer somebody with more innings). But isn't rating left-handed relievers a little like rating left-footed punters? Or tone-deaf point guards?

[Guest Edgy DC]

That's a little willfully ignorant by Neyer. Obviously, the main point of setting these guys into different sub-groups is to create more lists to talk about. But unlike his examples, lefthanded relievers are different in ways that matter to the game.

His methodology is a little wacky.

Someone much have once told him he's clever.
That was a futile attempt.
