Again 33 innings. It's absolutely a great accomplishment, and he's been wonderful. But Gregerson by almost every significant measure has been better

Everyone acknoledges that reliever ERA is fluky, why credit that when there are numerous guys who have been significantly better by other, better measures?

Responses:

Becuase the entire goal of a reliever is not to let the other guys score. - Will Hunting Jul 4, 15:20 4
- Gregerson right now has the lowest WHIP a reliever (min 40 innings) has EVER put up. Better than Eck in 89 and 90. - musubi Jul 4, 15:27 3
  - Other than letting guys score which again, Rhodes was historic as recently as last Tuesday. - Will Hunting Jul 4, 15:30 1
    - Rhodes is good. To be fair, yes, he's deserving of an AS nod. But more than Wagner or Gregerson? - musubi Jul 4, 15:32
  - That's including his bad innings, not just a lucky streak. (nm) - musubi Jul 4, 15:29
