Please refer to the "Poll: is Mariano Rivera one of the top 10 pitchers of all time?" thread.

He was a long reliever and spot starter in 1990 because he bombed as the closer. In his first 15 appearances, he was 0-2 with four blown saves and a 7.24 ERA. He had just one more save in 1990 after that.
KC didn't pay $10m to a Cy Young Award-winning closer to bring him in as a long reliever and spot starter.
