Sox Sign Bobby Jenks

The Red Sox have added another arm to their bullpen.  They signed a deal with former White Sox reliever and former closer, Bobby Jenks.  The deal is reported to be for 2 years, 12 million dollars.

So, the question for curious minds….where would Jenks fit into the bullpen?  Would he be a set-up guy?  It seems like a lot of money to give someone who would be a 7th inning guy before Bard.  Does this mean Pap is on the trade block even more than we thought?  I can’t see Pap not being on the roster come opening day…but it sure gives him even more motivation to have a stellar year in 2011. 

Thoughts???

Edited to Add:  redsox.com is reporting that the deal is close to being done, but not a done deal yet.  Still looking very likely though.
