Lucas: Wooten Ready To Close

At some point before Andrew Carignan departs for Oakland A's spring training in Phoenix, Arizona, Rob Wooten wants to get some pointers. Not on pitching like a closer. But on acting like a closer. With a 2.35 ERA in a team-high 47 appearances last season, Wooten has the pitching credentials to fill the difficult ninth-inning role. But he admits he still needs to develop some of Carignan's, ah, presence.
