Seems everyone is bowing before the might that is the Steinbrenners, Generation II.
After Alex Rodriguez made an (overrated) concession, now it seems Mariano Rivera is going to sign a three-year, $45 million deal.
He's still great, if not omnipotent, and was not a question mark in the postseason, unlike so many others.
But four years for almost any closer is taking a risk, doubly so for a 38-year-old. And, shocking as it may seem, it's A-Rod, Andy Pettitte and Jorge Posada (and even Jose Molina) who are less replaceable than Rivera.
Welcome back to reality, Mo. It's good to see you.
