As unbelievably good and beloved as Rivera was, it's kinda ironic that the first ever unanimous player ranks about a win ahead of Cole Hamels in pitcher WAR.

I know I know, could only pitch the role he was given, he redefined the position, all the hardware. But still, a guy who pitched about an inning once ever 2.5-3 games for his career is the very first guy who got in unanimously. It might not be wrong, but it's really strange.
