Rivera picked up right where he left off last Oct, blowing another 9th inning lead to the Bosox. But Jeter bailed him out bigtime, blasting a game-winning solo shot in the 9th off Foulke.

Mariano's on his last legs as a dominant reliever, I suspect.

Mariano's on his last legs as a dominant reliever, I suspect.

He still killed against the rest of the league last year; it's only the Red Sox that really got to him Some say that it's because the two teams play so often, and that the Red Sox have figured him out, but I also think Mariano may have some sort of mental block when pitching to the Sox, sad to say.

Yep. He'll make me nervous every game. He'll be fine as a set-up, but I think the days of an automatic win to close are over.
