The Boston Red Sox have their closer!

A busy Wednesday in MLB free agency resulted in the Red Sox reportedly agreeing to a deal with Kenley Jansen that is for two years and $32 million.

NESN's Lauren Willand looks into the deal and goes over why this is a good signing for the Red Sox -- who haven't had a closer in what feels like forever -- and how it will benefit the other relief pitchers. Lauren also provides the latest on where things stand with Xander Bogaerts and the Red Sox -- and it's good news!
