Nah, Pappelbon will be 'the closer'. A)He's their property and is under contract for a bit b)Gagne isn't theirs anywhere past the season. No way they undermine their own for a guy that is there a couple months, probably tops. Now they might look to revisit resigning Gagne and move Pappelbon back into the rotation next year, but I kind of doubt it.
What we've got here is failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach, so you get what we had here last week which is the way he wants it. Well, he gets it.
Gagne will be used in the 7th and 8th innings. Pappelbon will remain as the closer because he is by far the better of the two.
