Red Sox SP Daisuke Matsuzaka was unable to throw his BP session today, which puts his availability for Opening Day in doubt. It was almost exactly a month ago (Feb. 12) that Matsuzaka cut short a bullpen session with what was called back tightness. The Sox insisted it was a minor setback, but Matsuzaka did not throw another bullpen session until March 5, almost three weeks later.
Analysis:
Matsuzaka could left behind when Boston breaks camp and there seems to be a good chance that he will need April to get himself in pitching shape. Dice-K was already projected as a #5/6 SP…in leagues with short benches and no DL’s he should not be drafted.
