Wakefield wants to start: Red Sox SP Tim Wakefield says he's healthy and believes he deserves a spot in Boston's starting rotation despite undergoing offseason surgery to repair a herniated disc. “Hopefully they respect me enough to give me the ball when we get to spring training as a member of this rotation," he told the Boston Herald. "I think I’ve earned the right to be a full-time starter and go from there." According to the Herald, Wakefield is on his normal throwing program and feeling fine.

Fantasy Analysis
Red Sox veteran knuckleballer Wakefield was picked for the All-Star Game for the first time last season after an outstanding first half. But he wore down after the break, posting zero wins in an injury-plagued second half and finishing 11-5 with a 4.58 ERA. He will always have a decent chance for wins pitching for the contending Red Sox, but considering his age and this most recent procedure, he is probably not worth drafting in mixed leagues. Consider him a sleeper for AL-only formats on Draft Day and weigh his streaks and matchups on a weekly basis in mixed leagues during the season.
