Yankee fans can sleep a little easier tonight, safe in the knowledge that Mariano Rivera has signed a two-year contract extension, which will virtually guarantee that he finishes his career in New York.

Yankee GM Brian Cashman says that "[Rivera is] in my opinion, the best reliever in the history of baseball". You may or may not agree with this statement, but the fact is that Rivera is one of those guys you would want to have on the mound when the game is on the line. There's no such thing as a closer who never loses (Game 7 of the 2001 World Series proved that Rivera isn't invincible), but Rivera is one of those guys who comes close, and you have to admit that you'd rather have him out there than Armando Benitez or Jose Mesa...
