Zannad, this bodes well for all of my saxes.
I leave them all out on the stands, so they are rarely dried, although I have pull throughs for all of them - one for mouthpiece and neck, one for the body (not the bari, obviously)
They air-dry and collect dust on a daily basis!
I have always been advised not to use a pad saver alone - pull through to dry first.
Occasionally I'll give a sax a wash - damp clean hanky and tepid water, followed by a dry with a clean hanky, and get into the nooks and crannies with the careful use of a pipecleaner folder in half, to avoid the pointy ends doing any scratching.
Mind you, I treat my car the same - 4 years old and washed maybe 3 times...just not worth the effort
