Beckett injures oblique in bullpen session, pushed back to Game 3
Hello everyone,
ESPN is reporting that Josh Beckett injured his oblique in a bullpen session and will not start Game 1 of the ALDS against the Angels. Tentatively, he's now scheduled to start Game 3 of the ALDS when the series moves to Boston.
Since Dice-K started in Sunday's first game and would only have 2 days' rest, I presume Jon Lester will start Game 1 (maybe it will be Wakefield, but it's likelier to be Lester).
This could be a big blow to the Red Sox, since oblique injuries often linger, especially when the weather starts changing like it often does this time of the year in the NE.

I feel so sad for them. I hope the Angels beat the tar out of the Sox.

Wished I had $5 for every time I will hear about this during the next week.
We now have a story line for the postseason: more moaning and gnashing of teeth from Red Sox Nation. First Manny, now this.
