We all hope the Beckett can duplicate his resurgence from last year - time will tell.

On another subject: I'm having a hard time with this whole saga of sending Wake to the pen to make room for Dice-K. I know they paid him a boatload of money and need to try to get value from him but ... you know he's Dice-K...just painful to watch AND he has never really produced to the hype that surrounded him. I know - 18 wins his first year, but if you remember he had tons of run support and was bailed out by a superior bullpen lots and lots of times. Wakefield , on the other hand, has been a good soldier and consistantly produced over the years. Yes, he has the occasional clunker, but with one game to win and a choice between those two, I put Wakefield out there every time.

Is there a better answer - probably not - that doesn't mean I have to like this though.
