"(Gregg) Olson came in like wildfire as a reliever in the late 1980s, mowing down everything in his path with a blazing fastball and devastating curve. But after a quick rise to the status of top echelon closer, an injury to Olson's elbow wrecked his efficiency." - Sheldon Stewart in the Baseball Library
