Our New Closer |
According to multiple reports, Red Sox manager
John Farrell has already told new acquisition Joel Hanrahan that he—and not former closer Andrew Bailey—will close for the team in 2013. This, of course, raises the question of what the Sox will do with Bailey—who was traded for
Josh Reddick before the start of last season. It's unclear whether Bailey will be slotted in behind Hanrahan as an eight inning option—since a slew of alternatives already exist for that role (e.g.,
Koji Uehara,
Daniel Bard,
Alfredo Aceves,
Franklin Morales). Stay tuned!
