Here is a look at the closer report for week 7. It contains all of the most recent closer news, plus the current closers and the current handcuffs.

The Washington Nationals promoted Drew Storen to the major leagues over the weekend. Storen will start off as a seventh inning set up man and will eventually take over as closer the last half of this season when/if Matt Capps is traded or else will start 2011 as the Nationals closer. Washington is living the dream now, with the team hanging in the race and Capps pitching lights out which will only serve to boost his trade value. Storen had a 1.08 ERA between two levels with 15 strikeouts in 16 2/3 innings.

Jose Contreras takes over as the third closer of the season for the Philadelphia Phillies with Brad Lidge headed to the disabled list. Lefty J.C. Romero picked up a save Sunday night but that was based more on match ups rather than performance. Scott Mathieson has six saves in Triple-A with a .96 ERA and could be up at some point in the near future.

Manuel Corpas remains as closer for the Colorado Rockies for the next week as Huston Street tweaked his groin while out on rehab.

Bobby Jenks and Matt Thornton each recorded saves last week for the Chicago White Sox. While there has been no official announcement about a permanent change, this week should be telling as to who is the lead dog.
