Tyler Kepner and
Ken Davidoff write about Mo's dominance this year and the help that he has given fellow reliever, Edwar Ramirez.
Said Joe Girardi: "People, a lot of times, ask me, 'Who's the best pitcher you've ever caught?' and I've been pretty fortunate. I've caught Greg Maddux. I've caught Roger Clemens. But a lot of times, I'll say Mo because he's been so dominant for so long, basically doing it with one pitch.
"I know he's not a starter. Nothing against Maddux or Clemens, because they're both unbelievable pitchers. But I probably caught Mo more than any one of those guys. It's just remarkable to me what he does day in and day out."
