It's so funny to hear people flipping out about this golf thing. Beckett is not hurt and never was. He threw 130 pitches and they needed to get Cook a start so they didn't lose him. They were not going to let Cook go so a team in the East could pick him up. So they give Beckett a start off. They can't say "Hey look we are going to skip you to get Cook one start before we either move him to the pen or move Clay" Cook would not like that and neither would anyone else. So they make up a phantom injury. Simple solution. Except for the fact that Beckett goes golfing and gets spotted and everything the guy does is under a microscope
