The argument against Benitez was the inevitable choke job in the big spots against the Braves, Yanks, or in any other meaningful game. K-Rod has done it in the big spot. Benitez was almost never able to. That's the real difference. That having been said... of COURSE K-Rod has struggled in the second half this year! OF COURSE he has! Like ANYthing can go right for the Mets this year?! The argument against Benitez was never his inability to save games.

Obviously the dot at the top, though, sums it up. Great graphic. I love the way the graph spikes UP when Ollie goes on the DL as well as Delgado.

K-Rod is 3-6 this year with a 3.77 ERA, a 1.315 WHIP and 34 Saves. In his WORST year as a Met, Armando Benitez was 6-4, with a 3.77 ERA, 1.297 WHIP and 43 Saves. This is a scary stat.
