Take a look at the Yankees' record in 1-run games: 4-13. The team struggles mightily in close games even as Rivera is becoming more of a bleacher creature than a relied upon reliever. While Torre is waiting for the save opportunity to bring him into games, the bullpen is blowing the attempts for Rivera. The Proctor-Bruney-Farnsworth-Vizcaino-Myers combo has 10 blown saves between them. If the inevitable hall-of-famer was used more often in close games this could turn around.
