Baez accepts setup role

I am posting this, if only to state how I am so glad that this will not be a controversy. But I do not think this was much of a controversy to anyone except Baez. We all knew Ray was going to be the closer.

If Baez really thinks he's closer material, he shouldn't have signed with Baltimore, where he knew he was going to be relegated to set-up duty.

Of course, I'm glad he accepts it. Baez is a top-notch set-up man and should bridge the gap between our starter and Ray seamlessly.

...plus if RAY closes two days in a row and needs to rest his arm, BAEZ is there to step in and accept the role for that day!

Exactly... always nice to have someone else who CAN close in a pinch
