BOSTON –– It's normal to forget that Felix Doubront is a rookie. Prior to Tuesday's 5-3 loss, Red Sox manager Bobby Valentine recognized the fact. In Doubront's first four stats, the lefty was arguably the most effective pitcher in the rotation, having allowed 10 runs over 22 innings. For a rookie –– a first-time, full-time starter –– there will be shortcomings...

The word on the street is that Will Middlebrooks has been called up to replace the injured Kevin Youkilis. Or maybe Youkilis was so upset at Bobby V’s comments on him not trying that he is pretending to be injured. Either way, Middlebrooks is up and Youkilis is down. So what can we expect from Middlebrook and is he a must-add on your fantasy baseball team?

Why Clay Buchholz’ Cutter is Fool’s Gold
Clay Buchholz is off to a horrid start in the early goings of his 2012 season. He does have 2 wins but his ERA sits at 8.87 and his WHIP is a disgusting 1.93.

If Buchholz were...
