How did what was once a Cy Young-award caliber season for Josh Beckett go badly off the track over the past three starts?
The way Red Sox pitching coach John Farrell looks at it, the ace has been hit by the combination of faulty command and mechanics, two elements that have clearly gone hand-in-hand.
As always, Beckett worked tirelessly in between starts, trying to fix a three-start skid in which he’s given up 10 home runs while posting a 9.82 ERA.

If Josh Beckett’s past two starts have proved nothing else, it’s that the Red Sox’s ace is human after all.
The numbers weren’t pretty — quite horrid, actually — for the Boston right-hander in the pair of outings. Among the ghastly figures: 13 1/3 innings pitched, 18 hits, 15 runs (all earned) and eight home runs, five of which came in Sunday’s eight-run shellacking against the Yankees to set a new career high.
“Obviously, you tend to remember these [games],” Beckett said late Sunday night. “These are humbling deals. That was a whooping I got today. Those are the only words I’ve got to sum it up.”

The Red Sox’s lineup hasn’t exactly been a model of consistency this season.
Manager Terry Francona simply doesn’t subscribe to the theory that a spot in the batting order makes or breaks a hitter. That said, the Boston manager would at least like the option of trotting out a regular lineup these days. Though Francona said he’ll eventually decide on a settled order that suits him, such a lineup won’t make an appearance until after the All-Star break.
