Terry Francona should have put Josh Beckett in for Game 4 of the ALCS even though he would have had only three days of rest. After all, that’s all he needed to beat the Yankees in 2003. That way, the Red Sox might have won Game 4, and Beckett would have been available to pitch in Game 7. Saving him for the World Series doesn’t meaning anything if you don’t make it there in the first place.
I know this is late, but for the record, I just wanted to state my view. Go Sox!
