They Can't All Be Josh Beckett

I knew all along that the Player of the Week crap was just a fluke, and now my suspicions have been confirmed. Daisuke Matsuzaka was back to his old ways Wednesday night, giving up 12 hits and six runs over just five-and-two-thirds innings. Sure, he's a seven-game winner thus far in the season (how, I don't know), but like a box of chocolates, you just never know what you're gonna get when Dice-K is on the mound. You can't be too comfortable. Hell, even Julian Tavarez is more predictable, for better or worse. So right about now, all my support is behind Kevin Youkilis, my second-favorite Jewish athlete. And I'm not changing my tune about Dice-K.
