Los Angeles Dodgers Activate Zack Greinke, Disable Josh Beckett
The Los Angeles Dodgers made a pair of moves to change the scenery for the starting rotation some as they have activated right-handed pitcher Zack Greinke while placing right-handed pitcher Josh Beckett on the 15-day disabled list due to a strained left groin.

Josh Beckett Suffers Groin Muscle Strain

The injury, while somewhat serious, probably isn’t enough to put him on the 15-day disabled list, but because of the way he has suffered mightily through his first eight starts of 2013, he could find himself going on vacation to clear his head despite all of the injuries that...

Crawford, although currently nursing a hamstring, has produced quite nicely on the field. In the 25 games Crawford has been in...
Has Josh Beckett learned to pitch without elite velocity?
Dodgers starter Josh Beckett is one of many high-risk, high-reward types of players coming into 2013, and at the time of his acquisition, he was seen as somewhat of a throw-in. This was partially because of his contract, but the fact is that both the statistics and the scouting reports matched up to say that he looked more like a #5 than a #1.
The velocity he once had (as high as...
