There have been short periods where closers were better but they didnt last more than a year or two the level Rivera has been for his career. Rivera is easily the best and has been even better in the playoffs.
I can't stand the Yankees but when I think of a unhitable pitch, Rivera's 95 mph cutter is the first that comes to mind.
