Well the main issue will be according to what I'm reading I'll closer we'll come in towards the end of the game with his team in the lead and Pitch maybe one or two innings a stopper can come in in the sixth inning while losing pitch 2 or 3 endings and possibly pick up a relief win. So you can potentially have a top-notch closer who gets 40 saves the season get signed to A Team that prefers to use a stopper. He takes on that role now his saves will drop but his Innings ,strikeouts and relief wins will go up
