The Wall Street Journal has an excellent piece documenting a rare record that Beckett finds himself chasing. Currently, Beckett’s 2011 is the 3rd-best single-season ERA turnaround in history. [As of July 7] Beckett currently owns a 2.12 ERA, despite compiling an...

With the Red Sox sitting on top of the AL East world, albeit by a slim half-game margin, there’s really not a lot from which we can complain. Sure, we could complain about John Lackey (and I’m sure I will at least once in this piece), but Darryl and...

According to Peter Abraham of the Boston Globe, Josh Beckett has been scratched from tonight’s start against the San Diego Padres due to illness. Terry Francona described his illness as “intestinal turmoil,” which quite frankly is a little too...

What a difference a year makes. Josh Beckett‘s 2010 season was an absolute disaster. Just three years after building up a ton of good will after leading the Red Sox to their second World Series title in four seasons, it evaporated almost over night. Then...
