Gordon Edes, Yahoo.com Sports

found out that that there's a rumor that -- appears some -- Barack Obama that the professor -- strength Sam Adams you know I think was from fitting that we had Jim cook in -- earlier tonight -- yeah at a night like tonight when you're talking baseball who better to talk about. The sorties story with then Yahoo! Sports Gordon needs -- Gordon.

Let's get into nightcap -- I know I was supposed to be on outlook earlier by and it's got -- excel.

Yeah -- Well you know up yet you're probably Macon forty or fifty TV appearances now meantime we're sick.

You know I'm I'm Lenny I don't drive on -- greatest threat Girardi you root. -- you know I haven't lightweight -- dinner a little bit water and Marion are critical --

I can imagine while we feed on and so fires. Ribs and Sam Adams your drink and water in the week ends. -- mr. natural.

And --

A we -- scored -- to get back. I don't know how that happened joke is not he hung up well you'll you'll never know I mean it's kinda like you know we we will never know how -- yeah. How via the the vikings would have settled the United States that they had guns and proper maps enemies it's you know what if who cares scored needs backcourt upon us.

Pop out I knew. Little lacking a gimmick yes I about a couple guys -- good rolls faster. It.

Don't know how how does not the is the explore this and of the next 2448. Hours that's even play tomorrow night I mean. -- gonna countless.

like victor I think it's gonna be business as usual -- If they -- gonna pick -- that they would have done such everyday certainly I'm it was you know -- It was a compartment by David while seeing the New York Times order. About fifteen minutes before the game so. You know each -- big picture comedy curious element so this thing. Foremost being guys. He tested positive to penetrate. You mean to tell me that somebody from the union didn't -- up on the shoulder and let David by the way we might have -- here.

I had that issue come up earlier Gordon and I know that the players were told the results would be and out of anonymous. Or that there wouldn't be you know any name affiliation or they re classified or what have you can just constricted redacted or whatever it takes to get that away from the public's knowledge in the press. I don't we were told they were told that but you know since that there's been all these leakage is going on I guess my my question is. If a 104 players on the list new back in 2003 that they were on the list wouldn't have been leaked prior to now.

Well I mean I -- support -- conceivable but how many guys appreciate it called. In a one on one confrontation presumably that you tested positive. I don't -- you're going to be Iran and -- don't know many people know it.

But maybe you tell your best friend maybe your best friend is your best friend a year later maybe traded to another team maybe you tell your wife and she divorces to -- top I I just seems to me that. If -- everybody was actually told that that would give -- give a more susceptibility to these things being leaked out.

Yet but the thing is Mike and an enemy to understand where you're coming from but I think. Nevermind that how many refugee here -- tell anybody out about other players use. Derek they're my testing on an.

You but you think that some of the guys who weren't you know dirty. And I know that that's probably -- ever shrinking and minority of people as we look now back to the numbers but. Or those would be the guys that might leak it to somebody if -- in other words if they caught wind of it. I just army I don't wanna call David Ortiz a liar about when he found better way to. He's he's acting is always completely surprised that he tested positive. And that putting us off for couple days -- finds out what the what the alleged substance was and I don't know I just this whole thing is so awful was that.

Well let me and I can't copy union and I think it and they're saying they need more time as well. Treat your story straight without Ortiz and on -- thought well he toppled but not terribly I think being right. Surely we could not. Belief that the Red Sox were shot while living at some kind it is. All that detonate. Prom yes they're 2098. Me think I. Twenty -- yankees' past. They're named in the Mitchell report because. So. If it sooner or later someone -- the championship into the Red Sox their names are gonna start in and I mean. Any you know the sugar packet climate that a -- it fear well.

Right I guess you know. I guess what we got this is the worst possible scenario for repent because. What you have here now is a guy who by all accounts is -- is popular is any callers ever in this town. He gregarious outgoing the big smile he's the face of baseball for a few years along on the way here certainly face a red Sox baseball. And and it's something that we all knew was a possibility but we still. Feel bad about this. Because he's our steroids guy if if -- I mean he's he's he's he's a couple steroid guys so but I have to say that. No matter who we are I don't I hate A-Rod and I love poppy but they're both cheaters of on the same list.

Ecevit thing isn't in it being if you look at chilling block it I don't. -- In this case you know he made a strong point today bet you know the I don't know all. What I was putting in my body -- just doesn't hold water because there isn't a single athlete in any export. Who doesn't know what he's using -- if I hope that David doesn't try to -- that people. The franchise I suspect you well in in the big night by. Are discouraging. I get it and -- is that. You know I a couple of years ago I talked to David any -- I would never jeopardized by -- Take care just hit more Almonte. And -- been more right I don't have to be a superhero. Like children. In yet now I doubt that he tested positive are or are there aren't.

After the game I think he used the words. I hope I'm not I'm paraphrasing but. I'm always true -- you guys I think he made that kind of reference after you he was cut outside the ballpark I think. You know I mean those words that come back and slap in the and they seem to already because obviously. In February. You know his announcement. That's you know with which. Quite long a profound and you know he was selling himself as a clean guy in number for the next season's over he's he's on the hit list.

Yeah you'll -- he says you know me I will not hide and I will not make excuses and and and you know Gordon if he she says I don't was taken and I'm I'm I'm sorry I agreed on percent of them.

tomorrow night they're involved law always a lot of Red Sox fans that these in the lineup I mean I don't know how that's going to be -- at those Red Sox fans are so loyal now on the and it's serum and if they do will Libya you know Baltimore backlash and the fans they wedeman is not the guy think he was and it's -- it's going to be very difficult for him because I do think he's that sensitive man he's a big guy Bennett he's very sensitive as opposed to Manny who's impervious to everything.

I mean sure he's gonna get banged on the road I mean you know I can't wait -- in New York well you know they're just. They're just gonna kill. -- you know what this is kinda overshadowed kind of an -- which out of the -- That the Red Sox they'd be on the verge of making. A huge. Tomorrow. I mean they're very much yet still in this holiday thing. That story right now Gordon needs a story that -- absolutely. And that it didn't. I was talking to auction in San Diego it with the Padres. Who say that very. Yes there's a very limited chance. -- they would move aid drinker like it is if the Red Sox fought back and they can't get Halladay. Seoul you know. We know that the -- blockbuster deal that deal is made. 2000 or not our and then last year with many all eight bit you know what to the -- and can really be on. You critics say it past the deadline in each case -- And I expect -- to be much framework going to be -- it. Or.

what either one of those traits and Alice are Halladay. Absolutely have to include debacle in your mind.

No question in fact it's not only in my mind -- you know it -- situation earlier in the week -- I had reported. Bet that the Red Sox -- opera Buchholz in a package. In in -- denial in it turned out what the Red Sox. -- the only component. My part that was incorrect. What including. Ryan Westmoreland -- outfielder on the island. But Coke has been a party or in any confrontation with the blue jays -- 88 JP respect. And in the extra -- soccer pop in the credit it looks like they're gonna -- in order to get done is bought all. Then want to beat their. -- Or the first baseman Mark Anderson at a couple let her prospects. Could beat at the Red Sox -- adapting -- Get this on.

So you out case so yeah system Westmoreland part of the story Chris --

And the fact that we see that the element here that lulls in the desert. I.

Outside of Buchholz I mean any other roster play is that -- you know not sleep well tonight -- I mean -- could that be very.

You know what they're absolutely I think today in in fact I would stay edit the Red Sox. Pop current college instead that they can swing this Gonzales deal they make web approach. -- Took a soccer if you remember if I get your -- they get trick orchestrate and carry. It. Tricked out and secure your -- all right straight it. Cliff Floyd. Should be exposed. Any exposed then got traded in route to the right. Will. Yeah much later Munich and then correct fact let me -- appreciate it happened that a little clip of what we've got people out -- community.

At a loved the guys to the get traded for themselves and that one guy and betrayed his pictured himself he's the later renamed later his own trip I don't know any other what I like a bit of when it comes to trading deadline is some is Casey Stengel. Going into the the dugout sitting down -- journeyman catcher and saying. Well looks like one of us just got traded to Kansas City.

disagree we have put it there and Gordon needs nice target area and that -- may -- what went -- Yeah. I'd write a got a -- one final thing -- I mean you'll anticipate a daily lied to move by the Red Sox the -- and I don't buy your senses that that's not going down.

Yes I actually think -- well it. In the air the other guys to be a little uneasy tighter unit relievers like -- I don't know possibly a guy like Delcarmen. But. Yeah I do you think they're gonna pick a big deal.

Appreciate it all right Gordon -- targeted Gordon needs -- you know who support.
