Hey at least we've got Dice-K

Red Sox will send Papelbon back to bullpen

Papelbon is coming off a sensational rookie season in which he had 35 saves and an 0.92 ERA. The 26-year-old right-hander was slated to be part of a strong starting rotation, but the Red Sox need a reliable closer because the 41-year-old Timlin has a strained side muscle and isn't going to be ready to start the season.

Couldn't that last sentence be rewritten as, "the Red Sox need a reliable closer because the 41-year-old Timlin is their closer?"
