Here's another name not on the list Ryan Bennick, 10-0 on the year 3 complete games(one in the regional), 2 saves (one in the regional), he also came back the next day in the regional after the 130+ pitch complete game and no hit Johns Hopkins for the final 4 innings, but Salisbury wasn't able to get the runs. Everybody states numbers against conference and tough opponents, check the stats. who ever voted or selected this team should consider covering a different sport because the don't know crap about baseball!!!

A closer is a definite asset to a team that is true, but he's coming into a game, the opponent hasn't seen him yet, he's usually got a lead with runners on base, he hasn't thrown 90-100 pitches & he's only being asked to go 2-3 innings at most. Your starter, if a good one, has faced the 3, 4 & 5 batters at least 3 times, thrown 7, 8 or 9 innings, thrown 90-100 pitches and given up less than 2 runs to give his team a chance to win.
The logic of a reliever having more credence is not holding water, even though they are both pitchers they are 2 totally different positions, if your starter doesn't give your team a chance to win, your reliever/closer gets the day off.
