MIAMI -- The Washington Nationals have a new closer, landing All-Star Jonathan Papelbon from the Philadelphia Phillies.

Papelbon is Philadelphia's career saves leader with 123 and is 17 for 17 in save chances this season. Papelbon also is Boston's saves leader with 219.

Papelbon, 34, had said he wouldn't accept a trade unless he would remain a closer, and he agreed to waive his no-trade clause after getting the assurances he needed from Washington.

Drew Storen, 29 for 31 in save chances this season, shifts to primarily a setup role.
