Sox 2006 second round pick Justin Masterson will start tonight’s game in Ft. Myers.
“It’s exciting, just making the first start (of the spring),” Masterson told the ProJo. “It’s good to face a college team and sort of get my feet wet before I face some major-league hitters.”
Masterson pitched for AA Portand last year. He throws a high speed sinker (95 MPH), and has a decent changeup). Masterson may be used in the bullpen in the Sox farm system this year.
