Can Buck Keep It Together?
If everyone on the Red Sox is auditioning for 2015, shouldn't we put Clay Buchholz in that category too? I have heard way too many reporters say that Buck is a lock for a spot in the rotation next year because he has a club-friendly contract for 2 more years. This guy is erratic, often injured (more than Jacoby ever was) & looks like he needs to put on about 25 pounds so he does not look like he's starving. I think all of Buck's starts from now until year end, including tonight's, are an audition for him as well. Maybe I'm the only one that thinks so, but with so much young talent getting their chance now & the eventual signing of a top line pitcher or two in the off-season, I'm not sure that Buchholz is a lock. It will be interesting to follow his progress for the rest of this year.
