redsox.com: BOSTON -- The Red Sox aren't letting right-hander Aaron Cook leave the organization.
On the day Cook could choose to request his release, Sox manager Bobby Valentine said Wednesday that Cook will make his first big league appearance of the year on Saturday as a starter, in place of Josh Beckett, who has lat tightness.

Jasper's thoughts: "It's smart to give Cook a chance as a starter. Bobby V. needs to give im a chance, he's done very well at AAA, and of one of our starters gets hurt, Cook is our next best starter. For that reason, we wouldn't want him opting out of his contract."
