we need an 8th inning guy.
I think Papelbon has a no trade clause so we will see how this plays out. The Nats bullpen is

But Paps won't okay deal unless he's the closer, correct? Why invite that kind of discord into your clubhouse?
Pap will also vest into 14m for next year, barring injury.Storen gonna wait til 17 to close again?

Storen is an intelligent guy. He'll understand why this needs to be done. It also doesn't look bad on him like when they brought Soriano in the year after he blew it in the playoffs.

there is no reason why this needs to be done.
Storen has been better than Papelbon.
And it fukks with team chemistry.
This feels like a precursor to the inevitable sacrifice of the 2015 Nationals at the altar of the D.C. Sports Curse?

Does it really matter if Storen is the 8th or 9th inning guy? Throw him out there in high leverage situations. Let Papsmear handle those no brainer ass saves.
