I must have been thinking of Escobar who did save 38 games in 2002, but posted a 4.27 ERA. Koch had a couple of decent years, but he could be an adventure on the mound. One year he had 33 saves and a 9-3 record. Of course most of those wins were blown saves that year.

Escobar never liked being a closer. Myers best years were done, and with Koch you knew he could do it, but you were never sure if he would. Seeing the list, Timlin was pretty good for a year and a bit, I had forgotten about him. But it was sure nice in '92 when you could hand the ball off to Ward after the 6th and he would pass it to Henke for the 9th.
