Beckett out at least another month
Boston Red Sox ace Josh Beckett is expected to miss at least another month with a back injury.
He was recently told not throw for at least 10 days, meaning it will be at least the Fourth of July before he returns.
Tim Wakefield will continue to take Beckett’s turn in the starting rotation until further notice.
The good news is that the Red Sox are playing much better and slowly making up ground in the American League East.
As long as the team continues to cut into the deficit, they can afford to let Beckett sit on the bench.
