Josh Beckett Contract Rumors: Optimistic deal will get done
ByAccording to Nick Cafardo of Boston Globe, one Major League source says taht there is more optimism that the Red Sox and right-handed pitcher Josh Beckett will reach a contract this season.
Cafardo says, the “Sox could insist on medical language similar to what’s included in the deals of John Lackey and J.D. Drew. Jason Bay wouldn’t bite on the language, but Beckett may consider it just to stay in Boston, where he has already forged a great relationship with Lackey and continues to build one with Jon Lester.”
