Edward Adrian (Eddie) Guardado (born October 2, 1970 in Stockton, California) is a closer in Major League Baseball who has played for the Seattle Mariners since 2004. Previously, Guardado played with the Minnesota Twins (1993-2003). He bats right handed and throws left handed.

In a 12-season career, Guardado has posted a 38-49 record with a 4.41 ERA and 134 saves in 680 games pitched. In 2002, he broke Rick Aguilera's 11 year old Twins team record for games saved, saving 45 regular-season games. His career ERA is deceptively poor, largely because for several years the Twins attempted to use him as a starter before finally shifting him into the closer role.

Highlights

Led American League in saves (2002)
