14. Matt Thornton

WAR: 11.2

RA9-WAR: 11.2; RAR: 108.4

FDP-Wins: 0.0; BIP-Wins: -0.7; LOB-Wins: 0.8

Across 13 seasons and four clubs, Matt Thornton was just as effective as anyone out of the bullpen. He never saved more than eight games in a season, but the one-time All-Star did manage 36 wins and 206 holds for his career. And he did so while leaving 74.7% of baserunners stranded.
