Beckett falls to Angels Game 2: Red Sox SP Josh Beckett yielded five hits and four runs in 6 2/3 innings during his first playoff loss in a Red Sox uniform on Friday, losing to the Angels 4-1. It was his first defeat in nine postseason starts since Game 3 of the 2003 World Series with Florida.

Fantasy Analysis

Beckett, the former World Series MVP for Florida and a star during Boston's 2007 title run, missed his penultimate scheduled start of the regular season with back spasms, but pronounced himself healthy for the postseason. He's no stranger to pitching through pain after gutting out the postseason through a strained oblique muscle last year. Beckett at times looked like the best pitcher in baseball this year and at times (7.22 ERA in April and 5.03 ERA in August) looked like the worst. His reliance on the curveball can be his own worst enemy at times, but the good still far outweighs the bad with him, especially since he pitches for a perennial contender in Boston. He's not a top-five Fantasy SP next season, but you're not doing your team a disservice if you draft him as your ace.
