Well, the BoSox took it on the chin last night, had a feeling their former player would do his best against them and he did. Casey Fossum, the left-hander is 2-0 with a 1.16 ERA in four starts against Boston this season. In his other 17 starts, Fossum’s ERA is 5.52. This is one of the areas when your looking to make a bet with some good odds to take into account. There is always extra incentive for former team members to prove to the team that traded them that they have what it takes and that they shouldn’t have been traded.
