Beckett was unreal in high school, fastball in the mid to upper 90's, very sharp hard curveball, needed work on his change. As I'm sure you all can imagine, but there were a dozen or more scouts at pretty much all of his games. His numbers in the minors so far looked like video game stats, his first start in the majors was shutout baseball (can't remember exactly how many innings). My point is that he definitely has the stuff to get the job done, and with such a low pressure situation as the one that is presenting itself tonight, he should be able to perform well once again. Lineup edge goes to Florida as well. Alfonseca threw an inning but should be available again today if the game is close late.
Once again, I think Florida is a VERY strong play tonight. GL guys!
