My Take
Trevor Hoffman is my kind of pitcher. Eighteen years closing games, more than fifteen with the Padres, surviving on a changeup rather than overpowering velocity, he won with guile and nerve instead of raw heat. I have always preferred the cerebral closer to the flamethrower, and Hoffman is the archetype. There is a specific cruelty to the closer's job, walking out to finish what others started while one mistake undoes everything, and he did it night after night. The 2006 Lou Gehrig Award suggests the character matched the craft. A study in poise.
