The guy that hit .324 with 21 HR's and 120 rbi's while finishing 5th in the MVP voting in the regular season and won the World Series MVP last year. Beckett has been 36-18 for them the las 2 years, 20-7 last year while winning the ALCS MVP and finishing 2nd in the Cy Young voting.

You are right that Lowell came through for them but at the time he was actually a salary dump by the Marlins who forced the Sox to take on his full salary in order to get Beckett. Funny how it works out a good trade when the guy they had to take on to get the deal done works out.
