Who will be Sox Closer?

[MrHunters]

closer by committee for the first month then lester comes back into the rotation - pap back to closer as it should be.

I understand the appeal of wanting to be a starter but the kid could be the BEST closer in history.

Maybe in Red Sox history not Baseball history. We all know that belongs to MO!

Papelbon won't be closing. it would be great if he could but docs won't give him clearance. Besides, he'd get more innings as a starter and still get four days rest. I'm picturing, dare I say it, Clemens in '86.

Either someone will step up and take the closer role or Theo's gonna pull the trigger on a trade.
