    Day off today then headed to Fenway South. Time to keep things rolling.
    I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

    Yes that's right the team isn't playing well in all areas of the game. The Sox are 14th in team batting in the AL @ 170. average that's NOT going to cut to make the playoffs. I'd be pretty when any team is playing like that. ;)

    Without knowing the parameters of your league, it's impossible to answer that question. That said, I can't imagine there are many formats where you'd be dropping Beckett a month into the season. It's like people saying they'd want to drop Mark Teixeria.

    As for the Sox, the injuries to 2/3 of the starting outfield haven't helped, notably Ellsbury who is such a catalyst for the offense. When they went into this season wtih a weaker offense, that's been a huge loss. They just left little room for error, and got burned on it thus far.

    I'm not terribly worried about the pitching, they've underperformed thus far, but, feel they'll come around.

    Question is, how much of a hole will be dug before they turn shit around ... it could work out that they play .650 ball from June 1 on, but if they are 8 games back or still 3- 6 games under .500 at that point, it might not be enough to overtake the Yanks and Rays.

    Good to see the bats come alive last night. Could have used a few of those runs over the weekend.
