Josh Beckett
August 29, 2008 by Mike
Not good news from Red Sox camp, Josh Beckettis scratched from his Friday start against the White Sox and is going to see Dr. James Andrews. This is said to be precautionary but I am not buying it. Theosaid he believes there is no more tingling in his right hand, but his elbow does not feel right. We posted an article earlier about a doctor saying these are symptoms for Tommy John surgery. If that is the case Beckett will miss the rest of this year and all of next year, The Sox have been battered with injuries and thy still find a way to win. Beckett has not pitched since August 17, he has been placed on the DL and David Pauley will take his place in the rotation. Daisuke will start tonight, Pauley on Saturday and Wakefield on Sunday. If Beckett has to have Tommy John and I hope and pray he does not, look for the Sox to go after Ben Sheets and or AJ Burnett in the off season. Lets go Sox and cross your fingers.
