Braves Out, Rangers Unlikely In On Beckett

According to WEEI.com's Rob Bradford, the Atlanta Braves are no longer a realistic option for a Josh Beckett trade. When you consider that the Texas Rangers are now focusing their attention on Cliff Lee in a deal with the Phillies, it looks like Josh will be making his Tuesday start against Justin Verlander at Fenway. Things could change, of course, but it's hard to see where else would be a viable landing spot for the big Texan.
