Mariano Rivera - A great illustration of his dominance

I think it's way easier with Mo simply because his success is largely because of one pitch. With a guy like Pedro, you would have to deal with his fastball, slider, cuve, and changeup, and that'd be much harder to do.

 

Mariano Rivera threw his cutter 92.9% of the time last year, and it was still an absolutely lethal pitch. That's insane.

He's basically a knuckleballer in terms of one pitch all the time. But its BETTER than a knuckleball.
