Beckett had 15 wins last season. He's young, and his ERA the last 3 years has been around 3.5.

I think ERA is more important than wins....If your club isn't hitting for you it doesn't matter how well you pitch. Just ask Clemens...his team's lack of offense cost him another Cy Young

I think its a good thing getting him...we need some young arms and pitching is at a premium in the major leagues. If he stays healthy he'll make a solid #3 Starter if not #2
