1. An assembly comprising: a drum rotor comprising a slot; anda closure bucket configured to be placed in the slot, the closure bucket comprising a lock pin disposed in a base member of the closure bucket, wherein a portion of the lock pin comprises a protrusion configured to rotatably extend into a cavity in the slot thereby securing the closure bucket within the slot,the lock pin being retained at leading or trailing sides of the base member in an L-shaped slot having a radially oriented slot portion configured to permit rotation of the lock pin about a rotational axis and a circumferential slot portion configured to interfere with the protrusion to prevent lock pin rotation in a non-locking direction. 2. The assembly of claim 1, wherein the lock pin comprises a shaft coupled to a driver head, the driver head configured to rotate in place, causing the portion of the lock pin to extend into the cavity. 3. The assembly of claim 1, wherein the lock pin comprises an anti-rotation device to secure the lock pin in a selected position. 4. The assembly of claim 1, wherein the closure bucket comprises an airfoil disposed on the base member. 5. The assembly of claim 1, wherein the base member comprises the L-shaped recess configured to retain the lock pin during insertion of the closure bucket into the slot. 6. The assembly of claim 1, wherein the cavity comprises an arcuate cavity in a surface of the slot. 7. The assembly of claim 1, wherein the lock pin comprises a shaft and the protrusion configured to extend into the cavity, wherein the lock pin is configured to allow removal of the closure bucket from the slot by rotating the shaft in a selected direction. 8. A method for securing a closure bucket in a drum rotor comprising: receiving the closure bucket within a slot of the drum rotor; androtating a lock pin disposed in a recess of the closure bucket, wherein rotating comprises extending a portion of the lock pin comprising a protrusion into a cavity in the slot, thereby securing the closure bucket within the slot, the method further comprising:retaining the lock sin in an L-shared slot at leading or trailing sides of a base member of the closure bucket; andforming the L-shaped slot to have a radially oriented slot portion configured to permit rotation of the lock pin about a rotational axis and a circumferential slot portion configured to interfere with the protrusion to prevent lock pin rotation in a non-locking direction. 9. The method of claim 8, comprising rotating a second lock pin disposed in a second recess of the closure bucket, wherein rotating the second lock pin comprises extending a protrusion of the second lock pin into a second cavity of the slot. 10. The method of claim 8, wherein rotating the lock pin comprises contacting a driver head coupled to a shaft of the lock pin, wherein contacting comprises pivoting the driver head to cause the portion of the lock pin to extend into the cavity. 11. The method of claim 8, wherein rotating the lock pin comprises securing the lock pin in a selected position via an anti-rotation device. 12. The method of claim 8, wherein the closure bucket comprises an airfoil disposed on the base member. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein receiving the closure bucket within the slot comprises retaining the lock pin in the L-shaped recess of the base member. 14. The method of claim 8, wherein the lock pin is configured to allow removal of the closure bucket from the slot by rotating the lock pin in a selected direction. 15. A closure bucket comprising: a base memberan airfoil disposed on the base member; anda lock pin rotatably disposed in the base member, wherein a portion of the lock pin comprises a protrusion configured to extend to secure the closure bucket within a drum rotor slot,the lock pin being retained at leading or trailing sides of the base member in an L-shaped slot having a radially oriented slot portion configured to permit rotation of the lock pin about a rotational axis and a circumferential slot portion configured to interfere with the protrusion to prevent lock pin rotation in a non-locking direction. 16. The closure bucket of claim 15, wherein the lock pin comprises a shaft coupled to a driver head and the protrusion configured to rotatably extend into a cavity of the slot as the driver head pivots. 17. The closure bucket of claim 15, wherein the base member comprises the L-shaped recess configured to retain the lock pin during insertion of the closure bucket into the drum rotor slot. 18. The closure bucket of claim 15, wherein the lock pin is disposed on a first side of the base member and a second lock pin is disposed on a side opposite the first side, wherein a portion of the second lock pin is configured to rotatably extend. 19. The closure bucket of claim 15, wherein the lock pin comprises a shaft and the protrusion configured to extend, wherein the lock pin is configured to allow removal of the closure bucket from the drum rotor slot by rotating the shaft in a selected direction.
