08:13 AM ET 08.30 | Maybe a disheartened Red Sox nation can take solace in Allen Webster's first minor league appearance with his new organization. [Webster] made his first start since the Sox acquired him in the Adrian Gonzalez deal, taking the mound for Double-A Portland against the New Hampshire Fisher Cats. The three-run yield on six hits (four singles, a double and a triple) and two walks in four innings was less than electrifying. The stuff, however, was sensational. Webster showed what one talent evaluator at the game considered an 'electric' arsenal, with a fastball that he ran up to 96 mph and both a slider and a changeup that he viewed as above average pitches. Another evaluator at the game was impressed albeit with slightly greater reserve.

If LA thought he was that electric I don't think they would have traded him to the Sox.
