Heidi Watney

tonight show. Painting and it might -- called me -- instead to rest and the old saying. I'm always happen Danish I hit like school but how do you like it came to Mikey show. He's been beaten tonight should be your bit in pain tonight show it's the music that cheeky after the -- show. We're almost vampire when Mike and starts talking then it will be -- and my -- What are -- sports reviewing. Yeah WEEI.

back currently planet Mikey show on this very odd. Thursday this is not your standard run of the mill. Off day for the Red Sox I don't know. A whole lot more going on -- that. And just in the studio alone is like going on right now is Heidi why he's here finally -- gets in your fitness yet. I'm sorry I just stood around my head spin it. You know after day today at DC turn around and around. My neck. It's yeah its it has been a very very weird day in Hampshire for you busy day to an ominous and folks just run Griese you know the globe people cross paths with. What your first impressions of of today and and the Khomeini gate thing.

I didn't think -- gap and I did not think they were going to get it done they people. They're kind of knew the Red Sox wanted to deal imminent hoping that over them and you know from everything I'd heard they were not willing to give up many prospects and the money men after the and it did.

Yeah they've -- shows how desperate they really were to relieve themselves of this whole. Thing yes.

But I do well I knew that the players. Me. In. The mood in the clubhouse had changed. And it wasn't in favor of man more.

Isn't dark wade changed yeah to a darkness of yeah you -- kind of not feeling like a team whatever yet and these past couple days you guys that you walked in after last night's game in man -- was Democrats versus game but they really love. Dejected habit and so I think that it's going to dig at things from the clubhouse but I'm still at step kind of shocking you'll still be secure lock in their Friday and not have him in the class.

Yeah after all these years after years of fun of him being a presence -- for better for worse on this team -- it is going to seamer tonight. I guess I'm kind of feel a little bit relieved tool for Tito because. God knows his job is tough enough babysit and 25 guys waited in -- case I think. Particularly over the past few months it's been a real babysitting job -- really kind of I don't know how he's kept it together in there and it. I guess a lot of his frustrations as it pertains to many probably know all over where it is probably missed his source of relief for for him and for some of his teammate.

Yeah Terry Francona had said he was going to have a team meeting on Friday regardless of what happened and being that. The mood it definitely lighter on Friday in the clubhouse you know it's just and you eat your not going to get that kind of production that Manny brings. But when you look at team here -- my dad's a coach and granted it's not baseball it's golf and even it'd kind of an individual sports it's his golf.

I spent some time but you're dead nearly you see my game you know -- But yet Cubs coaching at an on an any sport does a certain amount the same kind of thing he needed to to be done right.

Yeah and I he called right after he heard the news -- Meehan and like everyone who think he said team chemistry matters in heat they were here over the weekend visiting. And that and he even doubt that there were some troubles with the team meant. And that. He spoke to how important that is so I think it's going to be pressure after different pressure of the rest the team with him. It's seen that man it's it's tough I'm still in shock.

It will be it will be word you're dead is yours you're Southern California girl and -- and central. Born and raised in Fresno. And went to school and again. That's right that's like you know I've been to Fresno -- I was here -- about voice of John writer yes you get all of he's in a straight jacket yeah right after going to Fresno once seemed like -- was there for a month and I was only there for three days no offense but. That's just three days in the jail so. You incorporate -- year. I was there right around thanksgiving I was out differ Fresno state was playing well northeast -- part of basketball tournament. Okay. So that's his presence story I don't have won a -- in Fresno. But I babies you know they -- for Southern California at least from -- perspective. You could tell me if you think that being able fitted in Los Angeles Dodgers in Fresno is close to San Francisco isn't where they right there there.

It kind of in the middle middle right yeah yeah it hits like each of these -- Redman to a it's a little bit farther Alley but I would part of it yet about the same for -- to scout I actually think it will be better for men and.

Manny is it true that LA fans are like the way we perceived them and we've heard about the though they're laid back to -- in the seventh they get there in the second inning and is is eternal.

Dodgers game and you're there in the first inning you can have your choice of seats in the house -- third inning people have shown up and by the seventh -- people are getting brightly yeah and LA people don't cares much about sports that don't mean there's so many celebrities out there Manny just going to be just another guy and so I think that there's going to be a lot of pressure off of him and that's something that bothers him. I talked and just a couple of days ago he was really yeah. All of this was weigh heavily on him.

It was yeah now -- seed because of the comments that we here's the problem but many never talked to anybody ever done for any reason for so many years. That people had this kind of most of fantasy perception of what he might be like this guy who's just out there'd be you know. March into the -- his own drummer nor had any idea. And then when he finally does step up to the microphone and talked lately of course it's been all about getting now it's been kind of how he's not happy with the ownership -- this think. And I think it through some people for a -- some of his. Biggest defenders I think kind of -- okay than Cia. Yeah you know.

He's got a lot of rhetoric and I are really believe that. Behind a lot of that has been Scott -- it's ever since team that was Scott Morrissey in New York and then when the team was an Anaheim on them a couple of times and and it was when and when we're in Seattle that he'd first Manny came to me he's like what do you -- gonna happen you think they're going to pick my option now I can't handle that I can't handle they have all the control. -- summarizing what to say yeah yeah a in the course our conversation he went from being paranoid at the start and it. Sits at being angry with management for not telling him whether they're bigger option -- now to being his don't worry about it meant the end of the conversations of I mean even in one he's like -- He's got a lot of personality. Conversation they talk about so but I really think that it weighed on him and that he. That's certainly know that he was all that angry with management he. He he just didn't know what to do.

Well you know -- I'm in -- we try to analyze this for weeks and weeks as we do ad nauseam on his radio station we analyzed every little thing has to not dismayed with the Red Sox and you know I'm trying to. Division in visualize the the scenario it's got horse becomes his agent if for the Red Sox up re up him for two more years Scott Boras makes zero dollars. And and many potentially. You know injuries could be a part of it age could be another part of it two years from now. Who knows how long people are going to take a risk on Manny for the future going forward army's third going to be 37 in May do so at the end of two years to be 39. And not many people get four year contracts the age of 39 so I understand the finances of it. But it just became clear I think we'd all the incidents that that were -- because many never had physical altercations with anybody. There was never an -- stuff going on in years gone by there was always the the weirdness is think. This five grandmothers have passed away in the funerals -- to go to Wyndham missed you know the All Star Games and even -- the injuries that -- maybe imaginary -- not. There's always act kind of soap opera but there never was this all of a sudden while he's manic something hit. He something's happened to him an -- at it became kind of clear to me in the end that. What whether it was bourses planner -- he wanted to shoot his way out of the out of town so he could get that. Four year contract that he probably anticipates will probably get come you know the end of the season. You know.

I agree I agree I really think a driving force behind it does Boris. Because men he's not going to get on him anywhere else next shouldn't you and I have Boris from an agent. And work on don't you think that that we both do better --

It's very very possible. The lovely Heidi watt he's an in studio with a send out because so many phone calls on this Manny stuff you know might take your calls with -- rates are these people some of them radius but it -- too much and you'll get -- Frank and West Roxbury -- Heidi one.

I eighty LA if you don't like radio -- just -- at a time. Public TV does that. Question and a short. It cut the cut -- and -- cut and -- I mean how could be proud to be a model but it -- guys but he made. I mean it'd it'd blow my mind. Bet. He did something -- and Nazis he ultimately went to the as a -- there and that was only -- Probably as a plan they -- you read big old -- Red -- these old yeah isn't indicative -- a couple options be what and twenty it was that. He did get voted his mind that they will going to --

Well. I really think it. Out of his control really bothered him that it's necessarily the money as he -- that he had.

And he signed the deal he's always somebody aspect I didn't -- skipped. Work. To me. Okay. And I think the night in that -- one series.

No way they also don't just go over the plate by themselves.

Sure a couple of times but not enough obviously but. That would do he did have a couple of battles stretch in June where you know he he's put together to what we look forward.

Even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in while frank this guy Hansen was -- it was like huge disappointment. And I am not worried about aunts and -- the Red Sox I am -- about me become -- back at Yankee uniform. -- what do you think of the pot is now remember that at the end of the year he can go anywhere he wants to if he gets it for your deal summary your deal with --

Right I think before New York he got the Mets -- he's talked about he he said it -- loved of the mad he'd love to go to Texas Rangers those with a two T really really big on same conversation at Texas Rangers act of being here.

I don't understand that and but they need is pitching. There and they have hitters there in Texas they just don't have -- year and I never would have thought the idea what is at Texas a bit more obvious choice yet.

I really think though that it in Adelaide that would actually be a decent the front or maybe even the Angels not the you know the Dodgers but. He enjoys his time DH and when Ortiz is out right he he really liked that a lot so if he can get a team where he could DH and not even have to worry about.

No element all the fans get to miss out on the clown antics out there when the pop up lands in front of any rules over on the ball and get the -- of the doubt -- attic you were here when this happened but did you receive the as if not ask the guys in this missionary. The the play -- Manny. Intercepted the cut off throw from the center fielder about ten feet front and right that's just unknown just -- so that's why that's how. That's why am going to miss Manny. Stuff like that I. Still on my plate that year at high I've double -- that was good in about I -- that comedic point of view certainly from a baseball perspective. The house that got the -- way and mean and it gives. That was great moment ago scrambling. For a what's life -- now you've been here invest in the course you know half the certainly more than half of the of -- audiences you know men. You're of beautiful woman your working for -- here at the ballpark surrounded -- is it just crazy -- guys yelling your name means.

Remain ready over there and looked at -- Heidi hello can you take approach it may be an outside. It's it's culture change and you know out in California and care about their broadcasters as much. Which you know. I I ask questions for a living and -- tell stories and and I you know feed information and that's thats why do they do that love to do.

And here recourse to know it's not just the broadcasters is the Red Sox broadcasters -- because you know people you're just. There watching all the time they're always watch in the game. As you mentioned in LA their little more cavalier about their so they're not quite intense. But it you know you get here instantaneously. You know everybody knows new -- kind of crazy and made most broadcasting jobs take -- people realize who you're aren't. It's in your name -- splash -- in the water near here.

here I am it's been different it's been that you know like is that a culture shock but. It's it's not everyone has for the most part been very welcoming and very kind and and that you know welcome to Boston's it's been it's that's very sweet and I really appreciate everyone can. You know not ripping -- to.

You know that's what anybody messes were you let us know you'll take care Steve -- Boston Steve I don't know I don't might get good I don't Goodson had a Heidi Heidi. -- married -- confused. What's wrong.

What happened -- when he -- Dodger game and are now so I'm going to go I wanted to with a created that could possibly replace.

No no -- oh not free agents they got their left the replacement and he's so he's Jason Bay Sunday.

That's very well it was some big hands so that -- how.

To know everything there is to know about Jason Bay right did you did your homer I have this large print out of everything for him. You know his stats is batting -- fielding his running. You -- and the fact that he's got blue eyes and boyish good looks.

you go that's something hey yeah we -- found out I guess in a day or two was due to one's going to join the team. Is going to be here Friday's game you know there is no not been an official announcement from the Red Sox so true. We don't now.

Doing so it -- known who will put an -- that we're going to be an -- foot. Try to bring in big name --

Well free agents that are available next year I've looked -- the list of free ages and tell the truth it's a kind of a lean looking list although he can add Manny too and I guess now. You know that that they're real good players. That I was looking at the left field they're old Mike Morse is a low you know and Ken Griffey you know he's going old guys in.

Well and -- I think it's a little early to look to next year already let's see he had Jason Bay get -- let's see early not yeah he'll be great they have signed his crap out.

It maybe maybe you will be great but we know that man he's going to go out to LA and we know they aren't there it out. We don't know what Jason --

Well on the seat maybe his knee hurts every -- LA -- we know maybe tennis is meniscus instead of terror.

I'm -- I don't want and I and our investment. You know you're not going to -- game off you know going to say that's fine is not good numbers -- right July. You know Delonte game off well one million dollar bet that the big events.

the other thing is too though with that twenty million dollars they'll now have that for next season to spend another free agency they want Atlanta pitcher wanted to our position player they want to go get Kevin Mench from. No I'm kidding of course. Everyday we want Scott missed that --

This yeah say that the blatant do we -- but let me just put what you -- Best number 24 -- Boston mayor candidates out he didn't of the that.

also a guy named Dwight Evans let's not forget Steve it was a pretty darn good 385. Career home runs. Eight gold gloves in right field Dwight Evans was quite a player to a number 24. And that's where we had this discussion earlier in the year. About if they ever did retire manes number how they'd have to kind of make it Nicole. Retiring. Because Evans is here for maybe eighteen years and played so well the Red Sox and many played seven and a half years. For the Red Sox he he he was involve -- two world championships but you can't. Throw away your history just based on his number.

He's been a great player and he's he's done a lot for Boston and he is so much ingrained in a part of Boston that you know even. Me coming from outside busting you think of the Red Sox need to get David Ortiz you -- your manner and is that you know there's. Great pitching and everything else but he is Boston. As of late and as of these two championships and he can't forget what he's done for that at that. Team and for winning champions and nobody ever will -- forgetting stuff. But I think. You've got to give Jason -- had changed since you've got to give that team a chance to build some chemistry. Again because. Been good the past week with all of this rhetoric going on and stepped -- is -- that is just. Completely inflammatory yup and you can't block it. Not pay attention to that when you're thinking about the team chemistry and how these guys are playing you. That was definitely actor BP said any of those he'd still be on the but he did and he forced their hand you can't just say oh what was mean he's gone this is terrible. You've got to look at the entirety.

And when he Hussein all those inflammatory things you combine that we is. The sitting out of the games you know the Yankee game in the in the Seattle game and the of the awful at -- had on his quote day off when he had committed pension and -- about the shoulders. And then -- amid a lack of hustle was always been the you know he's never going to guided to really pour on the gas. And try for the extra base on the base path and certainly been an adventure in the outfield. But everybody is going to except in the game and keep all that stuff in -- as long as he continued to hit menu but at the incidence. Add the again the lack of playing in those in those specific important games -- into that the the mouthing off about the ownership is no question anybody's mind -- one out of here. It's it's would be very very clear we got to take a break here -- what he's here with us from -- and as she is absolutely just do it just you guys are wondering and are you going to ask me is she is beautiful in person issues on television yes. And the other thing. The other part of that that I want to get to his is that that we're having this auctions in progress rarity of a hundred dollars that's a lifetime experience here and believe you Italian. We are giving away tickets to Red Sox game to benefit the national marine life center in -- Bates they've -- nonprofit marine animal rescue and rehab hospital. These guys to save the whales to save the seals and all you know and he's a good good people of course bill Lee. Has been the type of these people for a long long time sort of benefit that very very nice charity. We're going to give way to Red Sox ticket -- four total. -- The space man bill Lee and another seat and you're you're guest in the other two seats at down into right field area named after ability because Canada's Alley. Down in right field. Where the our doors are always at that hiding hangs around there once a ruptured auction. But you on the left I LSI's apparently okay we you'll be willing let's -- keep these animals as far away from the -- asked if that I can -- at -- in addition to the of the tickets you also get. Dinner before the game at the at the famous chicken bone on -- street and that we're going to go to the game and hang out abilities the former Red Sox lefty. And won't get to read out they have some Beers afterwards and be a fun night for Marty if you'd like to get on the -- 6179311815. That's 617. 9311850. Were up to 800 dollars on the -- so Farmar and keep it go until prior to 11 o'clock and I think bill -- posted call it a little bit later on to from a I'm from California so let's -- sports flashed welcome back -- more Heidi what --

More often. -- that built through a lot of but a lot of players. Big deep orange and get -- and have people it's going to be called him a pass via this guy whatever it takes. Players. The way you think that people -- for about very thick brush because what I thought -- do for him. -- the same way if any were anything other than you know than equipment quite bored. Anything other event went that -- today so maybe I'm broke.

There's skirts you know finally free to talk about Manny you know it and and an honest -- You know tennis Evans don't she made the fact I think he's. In Korea as as -- usually has been very straightforward and honest with his opinions and I forgot to mention we have -- won here I forget Christine the male females out during this special appearance at proceeding in Worcester. It throughout their in the Worcester area you want to meet the email female I'd go to Bruce images. Go to brew city she's -- seven and nine Christina the male female and so that we gave her report on the Heidi -- from -- and IDs great CO nice and I mean that the -- I really do and we're going to take some more phone costs of malls because this is a crazy night for you know freedom for have their first -- on the show this all the stuff happening -- like while. They also -- time for was a peanut butter jelly sandwich so we got big daddy's coming in right now okay -- big days and pizza and it'll be no mu and also you have some emails there rather interesting ones from our road.

Thousands and thousands of fans there's lots of adjusting -- the the first when I'm going to get to pop Kennedy but the president Grizzlies in Fresno he's said died in -- to -- bark and silencing at a park concede apparently that the next.

Power of the Internet that he guide dot com streaming across the country that's cool you have your friends out -- missing California of course it. That Giants AAA team that is -- The -- are yet I don't she's looking around John like she looks to the sky when you talk to the hell you are he's we we have a special -- Cooler down the hall that we keep their -- we keep our -- I just assault -- at airports -- Toronto occasional pop top you know. I would just to be got there and.

I can't say I'm totally excited and glad we gave up man he's negative and the to sign asking to be traded for brad are straight up then it's time ago I'm totally glad to get him out of here go Red Sox. And I hope Joe Torre has Excedrin migraine hoping to the next couple of months lives from Norton. I want it seems to -- out your hands here. Who needs Manny when you've got Heidi -- glove veteran left I'll watch our. Give -- have -- I definitely won't bring the offensive our. Homeland that there are you you look like you were an athlete you look. Very in shape where you're an athlete -- lack of what sports reader. -- What -- your specialty sports I was always the body coordination sports gymnastics Danson. Diving. Team. And and then I ran track actually trackers recruited me form because from the gymnastics or which prevents hurdles are you kidding me that they belong was in the short was 110 balls. With the females -- hundred meter and hundreds hundreds and a high school.

Shows although I am on Duhon 110 hurdles that's yards. He's doing a -- yard -- and Raikkonen also did gymnastics and swimming like he did she can't hear you -- and I was -- you know. You know the rings in gymnastics the things that's what I did. Yeah. Oh I know trust me it was good that I can I. And I also could through the rings well. During the hot dog eating contest and Kobayashi train me to do the ring and he submitted the -- of the hot wineries at one of those of the year helmets too. We don't drink the beer and a well. And be glad and they put what does that make me -- that have been tape -- of the pictures wanted to at least I have read it leotard and we declared and yes -- depends that's right. Talkers in the car -- talker.

You take it don't I would find high line anyway. Mobile Bears struck first amount of TV I rarely went right -- out. A lot like if you much in the demand side -- I love it what the deal. But I want to -- about it deadline deal that -- not get time. Both well I just want to get your opinion on. No they did not yet.

What was that guy's name gray bow grave both from Pittsburgh great both the left hander was -- heard about last night.

I'm still wondering since we haven't gotten official word from the Red Sox if they're getting something else because. For everything they gave -- and and and nothing against Jason Bay I've heard great things about him but for everything they're giving up I would wonder if something else is coming maybe the Dodgers to the doctors are going to get the draft you had shiny and they -- they're getting. Any Ramirez. Oh by the way for free.

And and they're going to get the draft picks when he becomes a free agent right way -- offer of arbitration they'll say no to become a free agent. And the Dodgers will get -- 221 round draft picks if everything is and maybe that's something we haven't heard about some of those those details of the money or the amount of money it's going. Back and forth it's it's about such a rays haven't made any official statement.

Something good happened but we did you know get it I'd trade deadline. Relaxed and day -- Justin Maxwell's yes right yeah you -- our team but he didn't have to --

They also might make it make a deal before the waiver deadline so -- too as well for bullpen help. -- and and that some -- general recent you can pick up on scrap heap.

I also wanted to bring up decent again note since they have signed through next year is simply going to turn their attention. -- let's start elected that they're that cheap -- like.

Well sabathia being a left hander. The Red Sox have never. Ever in my recollection in watching the Red Sox for a 107 years. Gone after left hander -- any he degree of aggressiveness they have frank -- I think he was a free agent signing. But most of the free agents of almost the left handed Red Sox starters over history have departed rather than come here to this team. Now you have Lester deserved the Red Sox need to left handed starters I don't think so if you have a ball park like Yankee Stadium that you might want to lefty starters but. Since Lester looks so good. And he's been so solid form I I don't think their attention would be on a high price lefty no I would think board Ben Sheets that sabathia yeah agreement. You -- everything.

I agree at -- has been absolutely dominant this year and it when it comes to Red Sox stoppers and Josh Beckett had been the guy in the past but it seems -- that seems to be back it's outing last night was not not --

One game over 500. As some somebody Saturday was J putz and because he's good every other year. Sometimes there's guys that are like that I guess we -- a great year from Beckett next year that's the case as we had a tremendous season from last year. But this year little bit inconsistent. And a higher earned run average Allen deal -- go ahead.

I thought how are you Al welcome -- bought. Thank you but what the -- always been married -- many is on C. Really -- he scared me either of them that -- talk about all right he hasn't been you know long. It is. I'm not bad segue and your partner and I saw.

A lot of -- is gonna not run ballclub. Not detect it without its -- yeah. When he won at the home run crown already bought into. But many in the any mini --

So I -- I haven't been in Boston however I have page and the sports world so I've seen. The Manny being Manny moments of the past three years and I've seen how he dogs it. And only reminds me a lot of Barry Bonds -- similar step and -- is more flamboyant but as far as has played in last. And is running out you know ground balls.

Babies -- more likable but you you're right you doesn't he's extremely. Selfish. You know I think that's now become very very apparent that -- Manny comes first and a team and fans in the ownership and anybody else on the list comes second third fourth fifth sixth human.

They're not alone in that category way. It subsequent is that big of a played nobody is that so loud thunderous ovation. For a guy who will only play and run the ball up in don't want anybody can if you. Don't have you with this ballclub that wall and being able out of the ball in good riddance to bad people.

All right out thanks to the call yet I can -- utley thunderous ovation. And it's called now from here on in the -- east.

And it's welcome event K state faced the Giants 42 homers right now right. Manny has one.

From a home run perspective they're only about twenty RBI separating the two. I'm sorry twenty points and average -- five runs batted in Bethea 64. So like.

He's got 64 RBIs batting 282 let me -- numbers are very similar is batting average is lower the Manny. But his home run titles and his RBI doubles right there -- nannies.

And when he starts pepper the ball off the wall at at at Fenway and they're going to a lot of home games in September. You know I can see that batting average -- by virtue of not playing in a cavernous. PNC park yes channel if this were TV you can show your beautiful drive -- here for from microphone I want to see how deep it is in left field over the some beginning to show. It juts out the 389 almost immediately left field and it's not 389 at -- to get to the flag pole.

Admirably adding the need to thank you guys just put the food over there I'll just go put my face and that's awesome and I Anaheim won the gym is in the cards are -- were trio. --

Yeah a lot of social -- aren't and Marty thank you very much. Atlanta -- rodeo remain still try to I was little episodes. On the view. Yeah I -- situated situation opt for an you know -- part of it does not -- a certain you know other. That's so he is old ha. But he got. That I read it -- it there. They they like does that there's some more. Good or that bodes well quite good like who are well apparently. Well good night.

Thank you Jim -- like a guy gets right to the point -- let's go to Ryan was to Ryan you're next on sports radio and Heidi what the.

No disrespect but I don't Charlotte I don't know. --

definitely yeah that's that's.

It's not. -- all right at the that you're human -- that all about me obviously armed.

I don't know what -- a little bit and go right at match. -- more common but ware box be shut it if you look at the Red Sox gave up Niedermayer are paying your salary in -- up to their. Better spot back or gay -- and duck Dodgers give up two prospects were pretty ever met Matt and not being. But that even doubt at all. Talk a little bit more fluid and the other they don't want pop bottle that was. Arm hit.

Right they -- differs -- you know you have to replace a left fielder with that has -- the bats right handed it's not the easiest thing in the world do once you know. That -- is committed to not being here and you're committed to not having him here. It's kind of like okay what's out there and the reds Red Sox to enabled themselves and pull off there's Jason Bay think to me. He's about as close a replacement as you can get of people that are currently available aside from. Griffey or bonds and who wants bonds and Griffey's old he went to Chicago I think Jason -- a pretty good a pretty good option.

And another thing -- people have a bench and you know people do believe Tampa bay is going to stay and it didn't make any deals and they were really pursuing supposedly pursuing -- pretty --

They were actually as we got near the deadline day everyone thought they had gone to Tampa bay and the Red Sox. From my sources are saying it's really like this guy -- and -- Jason Bay and -- history over the past couple of years -- some good talent and knowing -- to get rid of talent that has done well. Pedro Martinez Nomar Nomar Garciaparra after and are reaching the end their prime and what Pedro and Nomar done outside of being a Boston Red Sox -- you know.

get Pedro has been certainly not a bargain and at the numbers he's earning for the New York Mets. His legacy will live on its kind of like -- Manny still know what's going to forget. The great Manny moments in the tremendous 20047. Seasons. No one no one wants to forget that stuff but. Do we think that we -- going to get the best out of Manny from here on out I certainly think that's that's there's no chance -- can believe that.

Well they're not quite as it was that we gave well a walk in gate getting back. But not and I still. There.

Speaker phone Ryan. Yeah yeah don't ever ever down radio that we waited the whole call. Counted I was looking at night. -- Not really I always underwater at Iowa idea it is because some when you get -- you know -- hello. -- Mike I don't -- it so good what's going on single to Heidi.

I idea. -- think ideas don't go very beautiful lady you. My color purple ball. Above Manny yes. I well -- but it missed many -- you know one. You know not for. It's enough because. -- our sport not that I -- Sure. You know you -- Forget what he's done for the Red Sox. For -- they use that he that he. Late. You know hey I. What they're expecting their -- experiment but like -- because say a enough was enough its effort that I an awful wreck people view it's not much of you have. He can also play you can argue that book that guy -- faced much the prima Donna you know.

I agree Maine me me me me and not.

I know I'm Noah had -- as you receive different attitude doctor percent this year I think. Yeah oh what an acting ownership did did the best ownership of -- Because it it was already on what I do that's -- I agree and another wanting me.

Don't know is no matter who you are and any business you can't just start taken public shots at your bosses. And have them think that's going to be just fine don't worry about it you will forgive that yes so as a sure fire way to to end whatever relationship you've. Somebody yeah.

It's just like any company works for you what this exact. You know yeah and all. -- like for example this radio station I used to work for for three aunts they they they -- they were -- Their boards jerks and -- signal and I hated them. -- when I'm not going to mention her name. Yeah I don't did not exist anymore. That they guarded -- I haven't seen -- that just yeah but he oh.

Jason Bay we know we're just say that Heidi is true because we don't get to see Pittsburgh games played it's not the game of the week on ESPN rarely. Not great they're not great they're not fun they're not exciting there in the National League.

I talked to -- Sean Casey today and and he's like -- To yeah did a great player great team guy great at it again and Sean Casey always has good thing about it but when he's that excited about a player good and Sean Casey's been around the league and he knows. I can't think that he he's going to be.

You know that's the kind of guy you want to hear from there's been some times Cincinnati enough and and even Pittsburgh Aggies are that's right briefly yes it was a -- made -- okay so it's even better. You know quite.

Yeah. Not going to concentrate on the airplane baseball. And that's -- I think. The attitude in the club -- it is going to be much better under a lot of pressure of those guys you know.

I do too I think he's going to make make -- better for Terry Francona and let him get back to the job of just managing a baseball team. That's really what he wanted to do all along. Now I have to you know babysit personalities. And I just -- a few good for him about that I also think -- big sigh of relief for the owners well I'd because. -- kind of -- you do about this and and without. Financial sacrifice they've admitted they put some money on the line to get this thing done to try to get their team back to concentrating Ortiz should be faster yeah.

Yeah and if anyone questions the owners drive to do with as for this team they need to look at this trade because they did give up a lot and they are paying a lot but. It is that important to the team that they get the team chemistry back and they've got someone in -- today that's going to. B he's not going to be Manny and he's -- at first added to you that. But he's going to be pretty good and like you say with the dimensions of Fenway Park compared to where he's been I'm looking forward to see him he's going to be pepper -- agreement.
