Hoffman hasn't been in the elite group the last few years. The big 3 the last few years (Rivera, Gagne, Smoltz) won't be the elite group this year. Gagne is hurt, Rivera is likely hurt, and Smoltz is back in the starting rotation.

I think the elite closers for the next few years will be Lidge, K-Rod, and Joe Nathan.

I've been saying that for the past 6 years now but it's never seemed to help me crawl out of the bottom half of my league
