Who is Allen Webster?


Who is Allen Webster? Remember the mega-blockbuster trade between the Dodgers and Red Sox last season? Webster was a minor leaguer who came from LA to Boston and could eventually be a key member of the pitching rotation. This spring training is the 1st for the 23 year old who is expected to return to AA after spring training. Webster was asked what he sees as his future with the team and he responded with "I don’t really know how to answer that. I can only do what I can". Last season with the AA affiliates with the Dodgers and Red Sox Webster started 24 games with a 6-9 record. He compiled a 3.86 ERA with 129 strikeouts and 61 walks. We wont see Webster this season, and probably not the next either but a few years down the road he could be buttoning up the big clubs jersey.
