where are the closers?

I haven't seen a lot of closers, "CL", in the league. Many of them are middle relievers, "MR". Even if they are "the closer", they are still listed on the roster as a middle reliever.

The "pitcher roles" are fluid, in other words...Joe Blow might be the "CL" this week get shelled and the computer AI will choose John Black to be the CL due to the failure of Joe Blow. Bottom line is they really don't change how the pitcher pitches.
