True, but that's the case with every individual in team sports. Partly luck, partly self-fulfilling prophecy. One feeds the other.
By the way, I just heard that Rivera is done for good. He will not pitch in Houston, preferring his last outing as a pitcher in Yankee Stadium to be it for him. Good decision (there's also some indication of lingering forearm soreness . . .)
One thing I hope now: I really hope Mo doesn't disgrace himself and the game by pulling the clown act of playing CF in his last appearance. That really would be the wrong way to leave the game.
