When was the last time he closed out a game that really mattered?
2001 World Series vs the D-Backs, Clemens took a one run lead into the ninth. Mariano came in to close it out, threw a double play ball into center field and then gave up the game-winning bloop single to Gonzalez.
The Yanks were never in the games in the late innings in the ALCS in 2002 vs the Angels.
He was a non-factor in the 2003 World Series.
Blew two saves in the 2004 ALCS.
I say the writings on the wall with him
