Here is my dilemma, I finally have enough cash to buy an auto game used card of a high end current player. I have narrowed my card down to either Mariano Rivera or Albert Pujols. I have debated for over 2 weeks and have come to no conclusion. Feel free to comment on who you would choose and why. Thank you.

Pujols, I do not really have a reason as to why but it would not be a tough decision for me. You can't go wrong either way though.

I think Mariano will be thought of as the greatest reliever ever; Albert though could be the greatest player ever. I probably would go with him, but either would be sweet

Mariano is great but he is a closer. Albert, like it has been said above, could be one of the greatest hitters ever. Easy choice for me and it's not just because I am a Cardinal fan.

Pujols for me too. To me it would just feel right.

Rivera plays 60-70 games a year and one inning of each, about 70 innings per season. Pujols plays 150-160 games a year and all nine innings or about 1400-1450 innings per season. No contest.

Pujols definetly. yes Rivera is a great closer but I wouldn't say greatest. Hoffman has that tied up for now. Pujols is definetly one of the greatest hitters in history.

I'd go with Pujols. I like them both but that's just what I would do.

Pujols definetly. yes Rivera is a great closer but I wouldn't say greatest. Hoffman has that tied up for now. Pujols is definetly one of the greatest hitters in history.

I wouldn't necessarily say that. Hoffman has the most saves in a career but Rivera is by far the greatest closer. Who would you want in the 9th inning of every playoff game?

To the OP, I'd also go with Pujols.

[soccerscrub]

Pujols - for all the reasons stated above

I feel Mariano is harder to come by at a good price. Less out there as well. Just my opinion though. Good luck!
