who is the next rivera in baseball?

girl, you set yourself up for that one, obviously you meant mo rivera, what other rivera in baseball matter? but anyway, no there will never be another ''rivera'' if it is, he will be closing for the yankees when mo is ready to retire:)

Mariano Rivera, There will NEVER be anything like him. But i think the next "Premiere Closers" are.....

Johnathan Paplebon

Heath Bell

Fransisco Rodriquez

Joe Nathan

Joakim Soria

Every Closer is better than Mariano Rivera especially Jonathan Papelbon

Joakim Soria of K. C. has the stuff and the potential to be a very good closer for a very long time... assuming he gets out of Kansas City. Having said that, I don't know that there will Ever be "another Rivera". He's a special cat.

Well if you mean mo rivera itz hard to find one. Cuz mo comes into the ninth and gets 1-2-3 innings while other closers allow baserunners and make there fans sweat it out.

Maybe K-rod but he is not dominant. It could be paplebon but he needs to consistently strike batters out.

But those are both maybees so there is no clear cut person who can be Mo Rivera. Also i dont think any other closer has as much class as him. Paps keeps his mouth open hoping to intimate someone i think he is just gay and keeps his mouth open.

If you are talking about Mariano Rivera my answer is no one. The guy has done it so long and so consistently that their isn't a closer in the league who could match the career he has had.

I am a die-hard Red Sox fan and must say Mariano Rivera and his infamous "cutter" stands alone.

He will be a first round HOF pick.

Which Rivera - if you mean Mo Rivera there will NEVER be another Mo rivera with that Cutter is amazing.

Joe Nathan.

Joba Chamberlain. The Yankees will move him to the pen when Rivera finally hangs 'em up.
