I first noticed that Josh Beckett has gained weight over the past couple years. It was first evident to me when I was in Detroit this past May, to see Beckett vs. Verlander. I was watching Beckett warm up in the bullpen and I noticed that he has a beer belly going on. This evenings game between the Sox and Yanks, I noticed the same thing with Beckett. I have been a fan of Beckett since he was with the Marlins but I just wanted to know if anyone else has noticed the same with Beckett? If Beckett had the same workout routine as Roy "Doc" Halladay then it would definitely help Beckett out with his ailing back problems that he has been plagued with. If Beckett lost some weight then maybe it would add some velocity to his pitching and increase his MLB career by a couple years. Any suggestions or thoughts on this?
Thanks
