Trevor Hoffman??? WTF??? 63 innings. WOW. Should not be a canidate for this award. Nothing against him or his pitching, but that is lame. Check 2004, when DQ won his 7th. Check Lidge's numbers and tell me how they compare. Nevermind, I'll do it for you:

Was his votes just because he surpassed Lee Smith?
