Instead of Jackson ? Took all of 4 pitches and you want to slam him ?
Wake was probably (and I'm not saying it was right) going top pitch if the game went into extra innings, you could put him in for the rest of the game !
Justin Verlander also did NO get in the game .... very disappointing, till I heard why this morning.
What did you here? I assumed it was he pitched Sunday. Just the same, I'd prefer he save his arm for the Tigers.
Same thing, seeing he pitched on Sunday, they didn't want to use him on Tuesday, later I heard that JV knew that was going to be the case all along, which is really cool because he went and still had a good time being there.
Many would have begged off for the time off knowing they would not be playing.
Jimbo
He and Beckett both pitched on Sunday, I have no problem with them not pitching. Not the same case for Wake.
In my opinion, Im think they kept Wake out incase it went into extra's, then they could put him in for 2-3 innings, doesn't make it right, seeing it's his first one, but, thats my thought, I did not hear that anywhere in the media though.
Wish I had known that JV was not going to be pitching ... he's getting quite a rest, not scheduled to pitch till Sunday from what I saw. Jackson will actually pitch again before JV does.
The Red Sox two All-Star pitchers- Beckett and Wakefield- aren't pitching again until next Tuesday and Wednesday............and neither one pitched in the ASG.
The Sox will go with Buchholz, Penny, Lester and Smoltz the first four games back.

Yeah, they could have pitched Wake. How many all star games is this going to make after this? It took 42 years to get to this one.
They left Wakefield out for two reasons:
- If the game went extra innings, they had a starter that would be capable of pitching several innings if needed.
- When the game is on the line and you have other pitchers and want to save some pitchers for the potential of extra innings, you do not bring in a knuckle baller whose control can be iffy at times.
