Jonathan Broxton future full time Dodgers closer?

Question

Is the consensus in DodgerLand that Broxton closing in Saito's absence now is a precursor to him being the full-time future closer of the team?

Given Saito's age, could be next year?

Thanks for the help

Answer 1

Broxton has great stuff and is improving. Saito is old and his stuff is starting to decline. He has a chance of becoming the closer in the next few years, but I don't think next year. Saito's still a little bit better.

Answer 2

If all goes well with Saito and he doesn't have any serious injuries, I think Broxton will have the job in two years. He still has a lot to learn and he's young, last year come September he self destructed and was blowing almost every lead he had. A couple more season as a set up guy will do him good

Answer 3

i think he's scheduled to be the future starter.  While he has the stuff to be a closer, i don't think he's closer material.
