There are also the 34 postseason saves that Mo has recorded along with the lowerst postseason ERA in the history of baseball at 0.767. I would have to list Hoffman as #2

Don't forget to factor in that Hoffman played for the Padres. Rivera had the support and success of the Yankees. Not Hoffman's fault that he pitched very little in the post season.

Which makes it that much more impressive, imo.
