Josh Beckett is totally psyched!
He's not going to let a bad picture (or two) ruin his mojo. He was out with the other pitchers in group A (including Matsuzaka, Lester and Wakefield) throwing a full session today. And he's not going to let you get away with calling him a hero.I was p...

The Joy of Sox comes through this morning with a story that's eminently plausible and highly comical:
