Did I miss something? Where does it see that he will automatically be given the closer's role? I don't think you sign a 35-yr old pitcher for $1 million and expect him to immediately become the closer. My guess is he will have to earn it or be a setup guy.

Whitesox.com claims he won't be the closer right away:

 

Shingo Takatsu, the all-time saves leader in Japan, will be in Chicago on Thursday for a physical, and if he passes, will sign a one-year deal with the White Sox that includes an option for 2005. Takatsu would come in as a set-up man, but if closer Billy Koch struggles, Takatsu could take over the late-inning job.

 

That was the teaser for the full story, which you can read here
