Why don't the Red Sox just go with Steven Wright as the setup man now and test it for the postseason?

I do believe Wright will be an important piece to the bullpen in the playoffs, but I'm not sure having him as the setup man is the answer. Wright can be a guy you can go to for two to three innings, and he might be able to screw up the swings of the opponent at a time of year when teams are geared up to hit 95-mph fastballs. Also, remember that knuckleballers are prone to inconsistency, so manager Alex Cora will have to make quick evaluations if Wright has his good knuckleball on a given night.
