Curt Schilling

Welcome back the Curt Schilling interview is brought you by -- tickets ace -- seats to all the games at Fenway this year. The best you can count call eight tickets at 100 my seats that's 1800 my seats a log on to east tickets dot com and on the line with -- us now. Is the case one of these it's of the Boston Red Sox Curt Schilling. The big chill I don't know. Like not -- there cellular. Good morning. Unfortunately it was unfortunate coming off a -- you guys -- who are very fortunate. What Ted Johnson -- in studio with us as well. Much as -- dirt it's you know let's talk about last night's win mean in in moving forward big game last night.

I was I was excited about the effect the Payton got off to a good starters home. Good good fortune we don't play against barely -- this quickly the lesson.

They've got -- you picked up points. Well -- when he -- yeah I got hurt before we move on and that their last time we spoke with you you went into a tunnel right after you say to take frank -- number five. I don't draft that night to frank Gore's right I hope in steer me wrong.

Well -- I'd give it to comply with the -- in I got him teamed up with Viejo matters all of us senator Spencer.

You seemed sol -- Lamont Jordan his -- there about four weeks or -- But it great story that whom it's you know there was no room was yeah -- I decided to go -- real solid team this year and I -- think I'm. Well -- I I can root for like. A well you can work for clay buchholz because he got the win tonight but I want to start with -- with Wakefield because. House not it was warming problem Wakefield was still out early in the game little bit and it is -- is where it hurt a little bit.

Our odd I think you'd probably yes there was disposed knock the rust -- I mean obviously in the year. He could become a part of off the first until -- history Trajan. Really -- so far it just rusty. And in united collects you have power you'd use as a worker of Korea and reflect that it is -- these you know -- start to get back over the help secure here figures in all while it applaud people get around them in it would of the you know as if -- the decision will be supportive of.

I don't have to the first one of the year. Cart you know at the way things work around here with emotions and things enclave buckled right now is the flavor of the month than any well should be -- things -- 23 year old he would. I'm going into the post season in new role as he approached it is you know organizational imposed innings limit that kind of thing do you assume that. He's going to be on the playoff roster and you expect big things from them at that point or how do you view that.

Roy you know what I think we don't view of the same volume that we as soon as we have a playoff roster with the governor -- the game. You know magic number of teams all that -- is -- it's on that it is great debate that one -- area and and that we are we've been we've gotten where we've done because of power or desire or ability. And and are small. Very singular focus from all of it on the upcoming game. You know he's he's done well beyond what anybody expected or hoped for about four but we will put together a requirement laugh because baskets world serve -- it was more doubles guys. And I can't deal honestly do.

I here's a question I have an on the go back to us in our last night bases loaded one out J. D. Drew at the plate. And obviously you're hoping that you teammate comes through. But he hasn't and -- and he doesn't and you sit there in you wonder. And when Manny comes back you got -- very plain well what do you. I mean you'll want leaders on the team what he gets held JD do.

Law only. You know -- hollow club frustrating part for people like you retreated as break about appleby.

What did mention that evident at that point by you can I didn't mention that yet but yeah frustrating thing is that -- getting hit.

You know or he has in the past about the Ortiz these these two run heavier. I'm sure you expected or anybody expected.

I that is not -- route turbines that sequence players don't go around is some resentment. A slump or back you know -- time ago the head man a lot let's say let's single what they they know players know that that there haven't.

Well put it sure he's over the numbers are right I'm pretty sure that you there will oil producers even though he might as Charlotte because happy about -- is open then anybody including yourself could be you know.

But how to do -- cards you block an encouraging what you what this thing.

Conversation -- I watched everybody avid 2004 in July it was terrible war in 2005 with somebody else and everybody did they ever got. There have been well either of those guys were shall improper story you know -- You know fortunately for me -- there's a lot -- pacers in new. Or any of the -- golf fans have been I've outlined today that the people think I -- and yeah they all understand I'll pass it. In how disappointing it is or you do it for fans. But I think if you take your order you'd it wears when you more than it wears on on myself on the guy -- would open it is duties. He's I guarantee you -- more disappointed or upset that he is but the fact that he goes back like you or anybody else the bad about it when he's not the -- is is the reason people are more fit about it than.

Just give an example a -- distances me couple couple months ago I set some light. And they almost going Dottie yeah -- game winning walk off home run. First thing he says he's like man I just needed him better so first things -- in the game before you don't run. And I'm just -- example athletes and it was so -- power ourselves about it ever be

and we live there -- reports doesn't work we put about a that we wake of whether we think about it at the dinner table you think about it. No room or a -- do. So far I would assume most everybody does. You know it's it's so much easier who. Two you know Monday morning quarterback being especially you know manager in the moves in the coaches in the moves people -- In which you'd sit -- you. They give me think about think what -- that the people are but J. D. Drew what helped frustrate your ask me that question right. Well yourself for -- issues will be Big East feel everything is still there and the first thing you're gonna say applaud although he doesn't sort of emotion -- you know that they don't want to you know get fired up maybe you know that we came here. You know if fortunate part is that you know what you have people -- for Bob Ryan is -- while and so war because you know. Reported most of these yet or so back. Oh the effect whereas if we're on and you know. -- to get a few indicates you know I know we've put in the time we have tried fixing it better. You know the other day bases loaded he hits as part of also received but he hit. One -- like basement unbelievable like hitting or if the -- rip all of its audience doesn't make up for double. Is that -- that you're one what about away from.

That's -- and I don't want to look too far into the future as far as the players are concerned but what is the health of this team right now as the playoffs are impending -- especially with David pictures that we hear might be tired manes a bleak things like that.

It doesn't matter the -- we are -- you know we've got three weeks. So we even have a roster with the governor when he here wherever. A lot of things can happen in three days flows through weeks so. You know while you can be awesome -- have more than enough pitching on Monday trade Bronson Arroyo on Tuesday organized group now went very. -- recovered since we have witnessed orders and so. You know our -- is. Where it needs to be frost won the World Series hopefully review its work needs to be Russell about it and of little fault -- on either of those things that are going to be on anybody or anything but the players because we have the talent. We have a character we have all the things you need to work Walters and it's now what September so they need it and -- you know we put ourselves in position to get there.

We have a -- Do you feel better about this team than the 2004.

I can't get settled policy over because a lot of what -- that 2000 where the cup in October you know we had a great run a given year but if we got bored out the Yankees people become 2004 teams with a -- like been right there of of the potomac back. For a broke its Bjork and sweep in the cardinals. That's helpful what -- define exactly what made that scene within been part of the things that didn't make that he happened and so. -- parents and I know. You know it's a different team our -- yesterday about in what the there's different differences in personality it's a very different view obviously. In -- out guys like Campbell are. You know -- definitely. -- yet you know regardless of Gilbert called you bought the video reveal a very beautifully you know there's there's a lot of from. Now a lot of like all of this team guys that carry themselves. Right way to cable ordered right in in the old a lot of similarities on the field to that team. From you know several five you know what -- after it. But it had all five of the whole lot less shouting and yelling -- and and you know I think that that the media was what with the.

Take arguments in a word idiot.

Leader yes easy and later you have a question that she she does well on you know I'd just from a substitute no wonder he knows -- at this point go ahead meter.

I just -- so but he -- leader with the doctors but part of -- first few of them we have a very good. -- step don't press

well you know honestly I Schilling -- yeah. If you -- upon you needed another is a quote doctor just doctor from Phoenix university you get used the quote poise they're like -- question. Article --

accurate that's about the -- from home with the innings pitched and you said after that after that it was brought up that's a foreign concept to me in the minors I was thrown you know 200 innings this season. Is this. Is this a culture now just overbay being guys.

But hold on over -- but I also some you know there's two factors that are working against young players right now. Number one -- they're getting the big leagues much faster from the development standpoint that they did what I was younger number two is getting here a lot less inning -- active as well. And -- Right now a lot of good news is both financial aspect of it and you know so good news the fact that teams that think are not afraid to make the move RBI I think you're seeing a lot less concerned for Yugoslavia regards arbitration clock. Now that you would have in the past and you know it. -- that signed an 86 and made my debut mediate but I wasn't in the big leagues for good provide you want you know. You know that and that's. Nowadays these guys are side -- in you know all six in the big we've entered the wave of seven other first round guys old guys in. The part that I think is is the education of the -- local baseball what is changing for the better I think in some cases but I -- part of it is it is. The joke it's you -- that the job civil civil war old. They'll think they're going to make a difference of an impact and -- I think in the east with the kids we epic it but they get here and they. But no it's amazing people act of late that the thing I think I've always said you've never -- would be oil or broader but it it is -- April for an elected basically. You know that's that's. That's the kind of things so -- about I used in the big Apple but I've always said that very thing. But I don't want guys to -- for the first time ever in the basically. Because it but taxing or viewpoint on here in the where three point -- orbiter -- yours not thing you've ever experience not you to replicate. And not think of the -- would it be that you know an 8087 I think that 485 so many workable with 288 as well and I think that would framework of the schedule I looked over 500 and it's it's in the minor -- But but I also strikes as well in the him you know we get a guy like Leicester got want to pitch count in him you know he's about what are five of the five. Have expected he'll pop or anything it's like a bird stayed in the game of -- his career and that. I think you're working against that -- people.

how would you have reacted if they went out and pulled buckled stern.

I will give you some incited the opposition -- the was in the bats -- right now and I taught figo on the phone -- duels don't yeah. And I after the conversation player inflicted -- quality. -- better equipment uniform on. I walked over the divisive it Olympic favorite oh got voted -- well on the sweeper on the roster but. I feel better it would have been if there ever. I want him to have to attempted to bats right here tip about a 120 what about the my equipment that about the most they'll step on the -- that everybody in the -- that is -- lasted about like please just what people don't give up there we go -- It's like a ticket about well you don't have any ability that I that I mean well I I local back to that. The oldest organization. Our recognized -- long term -- there're so many guys and so will be teams sort of just. Obliterated young players career trial to grab you know that that moment in time afford reorganization -- mayor turf result personal glory. And I've seen hundreds of cute goal you know the whale of another job because somebody's lack of recognition. What they are they can do or or lack of priority that but this organization has. I'd feel like human and they always show that could be terrible the players interest long term of art because I understand that that's the franchise's long term interest in the had. And I really believe that starts at the very -- war you know and they're. Very open and very clear policy about -- about a player's -- for. If that permeates down the organization and to move things that you opposes as as the overseer of of that of the franchise player that they do what they have -- due to take care of the players because realistically think of as well.

to the rules you know when is. I've been instant win don't at the read Oregon you know and a those -- that and I threw like 60.

We love we long ago do it's time now know are really care has argued I believe well. It's like 65 as bright red -- the reasons you chose pads. You made the right choice -- love Alou and you know in about me but it you.

After going back to clay buchholz is no hitter for 12 one out a way you're sitting in the dugout or standing on the stairs and and you'll watching him. Do what you came so close to doing what is going on.

You don't normally drop back. A lot and I hate that it'll take no to a second.

I target very dead -- sick while okay event took a great part about it I heard that the cameras in the -- about -- out on the field. Then we have a little inside joke that we we -- judge. Promised -- it just -- from -- or a.

The league you know any any doubt there -- At the top Islamic Republic beat them earlier we -- better than Schilling at all. -- say that that it's about part of like you'll and pick him but it it brotherhood.

Whether or not they want them and you have a free mind and in relief that's. Have a positive stuff because I'll I'll want to Beckett said that I'm like why it's taken a shot yet

it'd it'd be capable story when he was in Florida one of the pitchers on the staff Ryan Dempster went out pitched. Through admitting it to third it looked like time runs out next -- guys picked him. He gets through the second any prospect but that's the the pitching coach -- aren't for -- that -- of say that went -- a whole lot better than need to get. I have like everybody had to laugh at them that he could hardly. Don't we kept them just horrid outing did jostled -- doesn't have any doubled home video no idea about what part of expect expect looked like they would all about it I'd. About it is almost -- People into the lake oh.

The topic came up and moment thinking -- youkilis the other day when when the Yankees come to town. Bad blood what's what's it going to be.

Obligatory you like it usually does it not matter stomach -- look I mean it's something that took a big big big apartment about that it views he knew what football is how he -- you employ well. The com and we'll have visited -- great now --

Did it it's the very same things that -- would you have -- the -- value I -- you know. I would really like to think that since I've been here this team has always tried to play the game right prior pitching -- point you know you'll do any of that stuff you -- mean you guys in the media will have enough to talk about. And I am sure that somebody will have a front page story about it was -- from sub --

But I'd asked I gotta ask and let's say this you don't forget do --

Yeah I guarantee you that. What played actors probably -- awarding. No you know however anybody does anything with regards to any of those incidents there's a long term a longer term of fact then that you guys would would would like --

It curt do you think that jab -- Chamberlain played the game right that night.

I will play -- I. I -- fathom. Barrett couldn't fathom the secular ones but it's happened I was -- first round that was never caught off guard I also know that it is literally next to impossible the full pitch in that location well a lot of -- effort. I I would tell you. I'm not sure I've ever done it twice to any hitter in my life what have a an orbit -- A much I was trying doesn't mean he was some always speak from my personal experience.

Doesn't look like the exact same

and that he's got you know and in fact the batters look facade for the ballot label which was probably worse place for the sat forward they're -- it happened on the field that we saw that you do it. I don't like what they're up over for the result -- like what we know but it you again why would I tell you what I like.

Look at it tells us something just other -- But it -- to tell us what they explain why they're picking -- you -- I don't know I don't know I don't know. Trash talking on the field. Now either -- out a bit dark yet I while I'm sure there's a lot of things about on the bottom of bottled auto. They're they're very -- reaction people know how that's for them and you know expect replies no.

I -- big carrot to this is just maybe that she she got. About it Allen your fantasy team versus my fantasy team all year we'll play each other head to -- winner at the end. His 500 bucks -- remarks -- for a while you do 500 to Benjamin -- for els won what are my favorites are now that I return.

your favorite charity that's exactly oh. Did you and I owned by Bob Davidson has that -- and we came on what we at what point does promote the it's going to be -- losers what's yours usually the sporting news. System on on game of that but it's it's that combined yardage -- them. Do you have any of the same players probably don't matter we'll have a welcome -- and you guys that they know it will have to -- to -- opposite so there are. The replay one quarterback an accomplished quarterback receivers.

They said they'll put it on the WTI website -- that -- you don't have the email me -- you don't know us whenever I can -- got work to him and I -- that outpost.

I -- I -- I could probably what. Given the depth might even despite what my lied about what -- baskets -- there. Ha ha to Iowa I -- only a -- What does that would visit the resident WBI their expert Drew Coleman whose name I know that you guys -- obviously a lot of -- your advice I figure it. You -- the bell I -- and that there ya go. -- expert -- abandoning what passes for next.

Been upgraded from -- to guru right. We're on an 88 good luck with what's left in now without it actually did you do we apologize director. Curt Schilling I guess -- bought them in the game is on a give my matches on with time for break. We'll take a break we'll be back with Ted Johnson activists. --
