    kevin youkilis found at 5:51, 8:35

    all that. But the team is going to be worse John when Kevin Youkilis placed third base will -- Brooks goes back to -- which is what's going on there are -- or baseball team is not as duke right now at this point his career. Is not as good as well Mel Brooks not a group. He's probably over producing right now. These slides back will be -- coastal isn't that good. And again this
    you know you go ten. Is some team got a jump say Kevin Youkilis all of a sudden you know ten games this is playing pretty well as producing a little bit. Does a teammate and what I would think a team would want to seal but it more of a sample site and less and less the Red Sox . Our I think the only way the -- I think -- would wanna see him produce a little bit at the Major League level or at least see a couple of weeks -- yeah I want to -- if Kevin Youkilis is please call for a team's sudden something to be a really huge incentive to -- from you know the risks in the ups in -- downside to making -- vehicles right now it's probably gonna get hurt he's getting older. What if he stays healthy for the rest of the year. In -- pretty good OBP 33 -- camp believes still. That he was an all star last year I know is one of those fill in guys down below last year and in the second half was was abysmal but. ID -- I think the Red Sox are making huge mistake I would -- middle Brooks final lap I think this guy. To me looks like democracies start --

Right hey guys didn't really gonna make Mikey -- host of his own children wait two minutes of forty -- and on and get right to him right now Mikey.

Church you guys and my -- I mean you'd -- want the complaint would look at what's going on. Well here Ohio regarding Internet and they've sent the -- across the prairie -- I'm not on our. A local tribesman translated it just immediately it idea. The -- public library.

Nice night and so I you know immediately as soon as I saw this. Breaking I thought of view and I thought -- you doing cartwheels and celebrating.

The problems satellite cable they can be as a at all costs you know if any has -- that it comes up the flawed personality of the that verified so my argument that I'd be happy about it. And you know I aren't happy about this all the region is because here we go one more notch in the belt from Major League Baseball as far as delineate these periods. I it is steroid -- disgusting now it's really gave no nothing more now that Raphael Palmeiro or or step so so is ours whose exploits. Because this -- the -- everything advocate where they run it. The future all these players it's. Aren't happy about but. I have indicated somewhat because I had not the -- eight. 88 or retailer folk hero that yeah. Just any ever touched so they -- illegal substance.

Write it and you party and I know aged joy does but even at the top of the show might do I begin there's already Mea -- is coming out. For you and I said they after all call on Monday because all these people -- apologizing because you were right as far as you know it just the suggestion of him possibly using some stuff.

to our I really boil it down supply a look at these guys I watch baseball what it years whatever I don't know launched a that number so stacked up soul so strongly against this entire irritate anybody. They've achieved it is an automatic suspect that the tragedy missile frigate you can't go picking accusing. Which created which could because everybody appears to be. Still beat. It just the way it is right now and it we you know we don't -- law which while you know election so like -- print the get swept east he's dirty -- and any different you know an eagle off the shelf you know it's our way actually -- says. I really enjoy watching any hit because he really was it. And it should stick character to watch the plate yuppies he has got active instill that you -- show that. You know how to how to get the ball solidly beat you add to that whatever substance -- it you know right now. -- Yup fertility drugs I guess that that the guys that do steroids -- depletion of testosterone. Like you beat -- All of this -- it -- doctor ordered the bullet it sort of levels. The guys that did dual pistols it is -- cycles they had that. Depleted protest duster or that this is some kind of substance they edit it reed Kris expected. Normal levels or whatever I don't put restart was ordered or not you aren't it's dated for a few years rescinded -- body -- This -- that dirty about it numbers because. Even the great rebates or most consider to be -- 660 career home runs are a great baseball player. We don't -- by when he wanted a big -- had stopped. But we get to a situation where I doubt this club that has doubled in size the last fifty years I've worked out front. There's that we something wrong and a single -- it's on that list. Which they except due to -- repeat -- have been implicated. Would be surprised in this like you YouTube poster -- it up to keep some reason or other and -- which should be Palmeiro. McGwire. And Sosa. And you know I think Frank Thomas during a quick question that -- art is dirt.

And they're all doing this and hitting these mammoth home runs. And -- authorities -- mid thirties when guys usually -- down down slide my Mike memorable for the steroids thing really busted out. We thought to leave home runs were being hit. Because of lousy pitching in the big leagues. And smaller ballparks you know that was and I even innocent kind of approach to it but I I bought -- I said these boxes so small you know -- it's obvious place in the being built. To get more offense in the game but apparently that was a bigger problem in that.

You know and now its -- almost embarrassing. To realize -- night we were letting it. Watching these. Numbers and multiply it to the year and watching all these guys just get physically baker. And that that we know that steroids does is make it's great society and every supporter. Local guides what are pressed the should have -- or -- very --

kids did not get contracts whenever. Unaudited -- and contracts both.

I think the worst thing about this is bad and and I agency to say it but I have to. It is pretty you know -- Reid bought while demand and that's totally cool they want -- candidate they won the World Series prime alt edit happy news. But we look at it now you have to kind of say well why -- we're right not seek to David Ortiz was doing steroids.

And Mike by the way he's out of the lineup tonight. Well it would stiff neck now while it naturally going to say something remotely going to say that steroids -- on the steps of -- now.

At least he didn't let you know August this'll be it all that you know. I don't I'm not really happy about that I got a lot of people think that would beat.

Right right Halladay -- you enjoyed man I mean. You know as far as a -- swaying in his talent the guy like you said god given ability one of the best swings ever. I mean obviously this baited my -- regular fly ball out to left field that. Be all brought whatever the case but might give vindicated denied joyful correct.

I don't think not a and and that the recently that it took I was kind of opens -- back I might get whether we don't wanna say about 88 place or a voice about the apostle. And he tried harder to the greatest player ever all the stops and and I'd be at all edit it -- that in the disappointment it was I and I attributed. And it's all -- steroids you know early like it was when this whole thing. Came down with all these players over the last four years. I immediately had to throw that spectator because why would lead him off that list based on numbers -- is performance over the years when he. He got exposed Cleveland. -- And other guys are -- he certainly suspect over the years. At least consistent numbers indicate to beat that I any ipodder armored in this error you have to look at say well guess what he's part of that era. But I didn't want to be part of that because I don't know it's just -- You know it's to -- take -- off ballistic great players and I want my that was great great hitter --

Right any was part of teams you know. With the Red Sox that one World Series titles.

So all that is is I -- whatever we want to paint it sure yankees they can't beat talkin'. You know out of their -- about all out deals or seven -- well they -- quickly dismissing. And Roger Clemens and and a every chip -- repair they wanted to. At least people they create -- and in Ottawa Paul O'Neill Scott -- split them. Steroids that's for guilty yankees. Successes but in this particular case now with it if you got. They've achieved no home runs and a distinct falling off this capability the last two years. Many now exposed along with -- and others. How can you leave it in it -- YouTube -- simply -- I love David Ortiz but how could possibly. Be good matches we took off the west.

Now he can't well I mean about anyone for that matter and it and we've mentioned these you know Manny is part of the World Series championship teams. Any World Series team really probably over the last fifteen years you can point out to a guy. Under suspicion or maybe even already accused or whatever the case may be so it's just -- tough period for baseball in general.

And now any -- it very seven years old at the end of this -- I think it -- 37. AP part of it is keep it. Going to be the well has not been capture Palmeiro did -- getting older respect bat speed is slowing down. -- making all this money you'll be -- make this kind of income level is to reach you predict what skills. To whatever -- possible and it stop or so these guys. Access to all the best science probably of the street level. Much better science and basically be a little bit stumble across in New Year's hunting. Investigate they can put on -- as any -- and they're always going to be an. -- as criminals who smuggle drugs or -- the police. Going to be there and the occasional that it gets caught it's just I think it's tragic. It's such fit because they really want to retain on their recent -- and I understand that.

Yeah and what's funny to Mike to me anyways people that use the excuse well he didn't know what he was doing whatever the case and also the fact that. I hate these teams have the best doctors in the world amid if he had a problem we go to any LA Dodgers team physician. You know whatever problem might be you wouldn't be going to some personal position -- in Florida.

Yeah well that's true -- FBI you know. I don't just live in Miami right.

Yeah as a as a residence they're down in Miami. Doctor that prescribed this was in Florida an island ad Clinton Florida where he's still got the home there notes. -- We're -- hangs its hat well when I was and is I think it's laughable -- brought Major League Baseball labs said. As you know these guys have every doctor any doctor they want. At their convenience from the team's. If they had a problem teams probably climb out of whatever they needed to do. They don't need to see I mean these personal doctors that are you know I mean that's laughable.

Right -- and -- steroid that he between testosterone is trying to rejuvenated sex -- is. Whatever you know I think that there's things he can be picked up those currently at one radio station everything -- call. That -- the Dallas got.

That I had ever expose the players -- that do for you know I.

You don't have that it can't normal human being -- back at a stop and you know take desktop you can expect an attempt with a big batch to. -- But you know albeit it being -- people -- it needs special -- going to be -- special that began. -- at all by pointing the finger at. What seemed to be obvious indicator that there was something going on in his body orators I've. And it caused him to -- these problems I don't I don't expect to hear that act you know -- doctor. Caught mark caller right now.

Every female they didn't yet. --

This is that it for immediate spark a lot of people concerned he's got that blacklist now eight players. And is local.

He's going to have a tough time get a contract because -- free agent after the season. I'm kidding well anyway around and like jump right now a free agent year. And now he's going to miss fifty games to come back a little rusty how much you'll help them down the stretch like that helped them last year. I don't know. And how about the Hall of Fame vote on this start -- steroids -- what that though I mean that you're both these guys do you do you isolate and say well that was the steroids. Era so I will vote for bonds I will vote for McGwire and I mean I kind of link to it I think buster only said that on ESPN that that's where -- am not look at these guys did the guys did that there company got against guys who did it. Otherwise I'll come on all of thank you -- that's again in the Hall of Fame Mike and these guys aren't going to though it. -- going to be put in guys like Derek yeah well I'm sorry decline.

By ignoring what we note these steroid era we are really get props. Two people before the steroid era really do these things. Putting equity -- and the in this period of time that we don't b.'s steroid user we. Without so much is as an asterisk or red -- What we're doing is we are. Basically taking away from alleges that existed prior -- baseball history before the steroid era began. And that is absolutely unfair to those people were true it what do you say -- A copy as our territory on all -- now everybody's got 500 or what you guys do it gets a copy what to a steroids. We get sick at that they can feel better all those guys across the country that played into Arabic were steroids right now we -- an eight run all these guys beat beat -- it. Are saying. I'm glad. I don't believe people -- should be --

Like it doesn't do them any good you're absolutely right but I mean again -- what we're gonna put -- Hall of Fame and both had to send five as it is in fifteen game went as an adult now.

go back and find guys you missed the first -- I like -- yeah Dwight Evans they're Bert Blyleven.

We got a low it to your body. -- at Mikey nicely for me -- what was the very first thought that ran through -- as soon as he found out about this who was run through.

But of course there are immediate thing right I do you know victory. He writes a big big big commodities they aren't sure like you write about this. The real thing I was talked about all these years -- That I did any they picked up that much steroids it did in the more recent years. But I was forced some out there and just try harder in ELC. -- you don't dive for a ball run the bases like you know how to play baseball those who think they're really kind of orbit baseball purist argument. And that's a lot of what people take before when it was -- and at any. But I never hated any. And I you know it's not about the about heating it it in the way we begin.

Right and in fact I remember you telling me Mikey this was not the -- but you know at that many would be your favorite player we just tried hard out there and hustled. Favorite.

Or when I'd be right now by all the civic a lot of people right now are just so just just exported. They get ten year old kids watch him -- or most -- that are grown up being loving it storing any and now you know what you just said no other cheater.

You know bad Mikey at all how difficult it is to dive for a ball left feel when you --

Very pencil so now we know. That's why yeah maybe that's why I was running behind the monster and other excited about it here. Just.

debt so great guys yeah it back on people -- democratic. They're developed this stuff is just overwhelming to -- about a barbecue hero I don't.

All right that sounds good enjoy the barbecue enjoy the rest that should look forward to seeing on Monday.

I didn't have a demanding back until they're nowhere we expect maintenance plan that back there.

I want to tell people don't forget the ultimate credit Mikey I'd like just my boss Jason Wolfe has taken the lead and -- you know short on -- I don't like. No way to get boats.

Yeah I agree go you know got dared vote from Mikey WTI dot com let -- Mikey -- see in my -- met with a rescue trip.
