It's the best closer award exactly So you just ignore stats when you determine the best closer? Stats are what makes you the best. |

Situation is irrelevant unless the award is a "most valuable"

You can't get a loss when you come into the game down already... You're trying to argue that he's better but you seem to not even have a full understanding of how the stats work... |

The only way he could get those losses was by coming in on a tie game with no inherited runners, therefore he lost 7 games all by himself or with inherited runners he left on base

I've also run my own league for over 2 years now, which puts me in a position to learn a lot more in a shorter amount of time. |

I just said that age and length of time means nothing in regards to knowledge, which is completely true. |
