relief arms are the most volatile position in baseball from one year to the next, heck from one month to the next! Guys will post the best numbers in MLB and then be awful the following season. It's a tough gig.

or a guy like Rodney who can be a all star 1h and wasnt even roster worthy the 2h of the year
but same has happened with starting ptichers.... think the path should be much much tougher if any path for a reliever to be in the HOF..
its like special teams in football, you can be an all pro one year than cut the next year if you are a gunner etc..
