Masterson was shelled for five runs on eight hits, walking two and striking out two while recording just 11 outs, but escaped with a no-decision in a game the Red Sox would lose 12-8 in 10 innings against Houston on Friday night. His first start after being activated from the disabled list (shoulder) was encouraging, but the old Justin Masterson resurfaced in this one, and with an unsightly 6.14 ERA, his spot in the rotation is likely in jeopardy. Rumors have been circulating that Brian Johnson will soon be inserted into the rotation, and this performance will probably only intensify those expectations.
