I guess a new as a baseball guy said this earlier -- baseball guys especially pitchers. You knew before that game began that Pedro wasn't troubled than yeah. You -- out issues. 77 left handers the -- right reserved Jeter and -- in that park. Against that team it was going to be tough.
in October yet so it's such. A tough time for the kinds become more ought that your. That can keep it out. And you know it -- it was he obviously didn't have anything I -- It was a struggle.
Curtis that you can't put last night into some sort of meaningful context for us. Aside from age catches up with all of us even the great ones like Pedro. Would it be you can -- a World Series would be the American League remains superior wouldn't be that Iran has overcome all of his demons. -- As distasteful as that may be for you to.
You know and a alt. Europe is figure out. How these current range and we. You know what it. Mr. hey they're used to it -- and they accept the fact that no one outside York remotely out. Okay yeah he's one. When does spring traits are in order to turn his site free agents are reduced its its. Eat it oh. A party eight there's some guys there that there next year peppering. And that's impressive. Johnny let -- but he wrote properly. You know like contract and you're bad on the -- a situation where might it have been animal you're you'll get from the unit. And it certainly. -- in that -- I think you have some apartment Jason I think and whether you are serious player. Beyond that. About seat -- or Europe. Right. I'm. So you know outside Google owner and it hurt you -- They'll so it supports -- they permit and I think players that it's a you know. I'd I don't know I'll look for anybody in my life that wants anything or that winning.
sex for us if he can the phenomenal success along jeopardy. Of a mole Rivera a -- it doesn't say what -- ought to be able to continue to be happening I think it's been like six years now we have set that spring training picnic tables at. Maybe this is the your Mo Rivera just don't lose it from everybody and finally gets -- and it hasn't.
On one pitch that's right -- it's -- present he agreed it's it's I think anybody can. Integrated closer again and and could be at a critical -- on one it is being -- just posting really are up why explain actually gonna Rick it's not run out all.
that that's gonna make it on our photo caption contests tomorrow grab yeah prehistoric picture.
Of people in that note -- you jump on a crutch. -- the last one. It's -- that should be it completely bomb that. -- and yeah -- he talks. --
on what you want to go Brothers -- Yeah that's Brazil -- the open tomorrow -- middle right yeah and you -- Oh he left this is touched. It's like a pilot going back into the in the than them. Sort of like. The world's first mistake bad assumption. Bad assumption this is like we need UN that wall you have to be on the wall and you left the left the wolf a thirty cent rise. I know you're watching -- and Pedro.
Watching Pedro in the -- what is apparent game two not so much in game six but. Just watching them off the field doing press conferences yeah we were reminded of how much fun he really was now entertaining you really was. And I decided it it's a shame that we had to bring you to Boston and run him out of town if it it now.
What do. About that though and I guess from a player's prospective. -- I. I'm not gonna I've played with a couple guys like that first call it will be on them it looked like. Player but that that that. Expect all paying money in I like what -- That I got this at the party's chief on any odds. In the -- from -- stuff that the Clinton it's partly. In the first thing happened in the dark on cool and and watch people you care about people you know respective game yet disrespect it in yet. The bigamy and it was their commitment to play by the the play like different rules the player earned at the platelet purple and take advantage of people oppose it that's. That probably the only reason I if you were -- throw in -- it was not a -- gonna -- make it. That it in all due respect and admiration and then -- to have -- ago. I also think in the end you know from the opening greatly in the ballpark. You know your first game here. From the old -- dump spot but that the guy you know like never questioned. The guys and always art and -- and the back -- you become popular at that day. And it has routinely cut on Iraq by the.
Card while large was a -- Pedro treated other people or how he expected to be treated and had its own set of rules and -- when -- wanted to show up that kind of thing.
And I think you guys all that it was always I would like with people bought out street. In Boston picked you know it's it's. I would be it's a critical need. To get on that when you're talking about a guy and a punch guys in and become a big players. Who compliment very different environment and and -- companies that yesterday a bit of four you know. -- player of the players. Grubman will survival and it is and it happened to that particular -- where baseball and wallets as change it is a very light there and these kids. It's based all or or or crying or obviously critically low. Salt. Through Saturday or -- typically the stream and so it's you know. It certainly can't comment it -- and it went all the roads that edged -- lot of cheap he dropped it may April great. I mean you still had a chip on racial or assortment doctors at higher life -- that don't because. They eat fewer than treating him -- sign of disrespect those who want to restrict mr.
Eight I know you're not in game shape anymore and here comes not a pitching shape but. Be honest with -- could could you win twelve games in the National League right now. I don't want why would any free agent go to the American League why I mean Pedro smart enough. You're gonna the National League when he's pitching on fumes if you're Matt Holliday why even come the American League -- so. Especially -- you see the bottom line up of the best team in the National League face and Ben Francisco and Pedro -- it's not and it's not the same.
That was probably as big actors acting like a -- from Philadelphia. You know been the initial eagle -- country from Philadelphia or -- we've. And it was for a -- Giles and it was a it was a and I actually back exe Il. And nothing to do -- I actually what we want apparently. I'm also ready to go to the American League in an anesthetic and -- Arizona. You know I have reluctantly put. In the game I was I was -- figured out leaving. Four with a couple of actually expecting that and actually gains were would be the players then. And when it became clear that it was gonna come down off her New York. For me 000. I think double that and then don't want like that that that Austin and human resources -- be able to be. The preparedness -- about it but it it's nine days it is not even remotely close from a talent then point and etiquette or respect actually that the there are not lineups you know that you look at the worst isn't American your rear naked compete and be a fire under what. In the nationally on.
J. D. Drew its -- year won't hit -- for.
It did it to order and or. Take out and -- Aren't that. There are and -- east Portman the numbers up the middle one it that are that that he'd bitten off swipe at that it's seven able.
they cornered Pedro on the way out last night and he in a very. Brief two minute interview said he thought he might combat probably welcome back -- surely needs check his mother first which is fine. A question you -- what keeps a guy like Pedro was made his -- who has made his a stamp his Hall of -- ticket who was made all the money could ever possibly make consider coming back when he knows he can't pitch and be the Pedro that he used debate.
I mean they think about the upper -- got -- prospect -- caught -- and then. It's a no brainer for me but I can understand how to be an operator -- other direction okay. What you want an excerpt well look see technical played professional baseball and travel around the world on charter flight eight by explaining here. The plate which stadiums are right in ghost -- mango -- I I -- choice I made my choice and I you know they gonna have the ability to make. The talk to want to make you -- if you want appliance.
What did they had to the first scenario was and perhaps embarrassed myself. You guys spent six months talking about. It. That's true. He's he's gonna have a season ago and his two. They went 500. It was her supporters are. 71. Remote awful lot what are you guys what do you say you're. -- Talked about ducks sent the market is is a media all markets of course or not get. The media reports that I don't ask you don't copper.
Right IA I did the Mea -- the other day you know -- As he did this all with the intention of getting on that team in on play and that's get -- he could go to the Super Bowl he he put himself. What to even though was awfully long and drawn out he put himself. In the perfect position to succeed I think Pedro did the same thing -- it -- the best team in the worst league. And went five and one with a 363. And -- the World Series seven. If we could do that again next year why wouldn't he do that again the.
It's I looked at I looked at -- What -- whites are thought it out -- pulling back from suck up your pitching in what I realized early in the year. Physically I could pitch again and I could be better but I wasn't analysts have been. He -- at the -- technical than mental checklist alt and edit it and there was no checks in the or box you can do it I want. But I liked I I I happen to a certain topic about. Org bought in -- we all the Middle East and an end and work get a job for him and have no need pitching and it turned out in the Middle East and replete or new -- And then and -- article pocket while you know that that that's cool and hit it. Again and it was it was good to see him do that in. And and and it ought to to the table. Went to meant something even when our pitching and I'm sure that he had an impact. On one players on the team has all the answers.
At the end of the Red Sox season PO was quoted any suggests he was not firing a bullet across the -- David Ortiz. The David -- understand what the preparation will be required. To get him to combat can be the force that he once was in this lineup. David a couple of years a couple the couple days ago. When asked about that said he's not going to change his workout routine in the offseason with perhaps the exception a picking up about a little sooner than he did last year to Red Sox fans be worried about that based on. David season of affected David look like he was extremely heavy at the end of last year and that that he bit that the general manager once and come back you know -- from athletes performance institute in -- adopt -- what I've always done.
Arm I don't know -- enemy. -- Course and use it you know whatever question David Ortiz worked at the or equipment and lobster there was not even thought about that there's -- airport there were question anything he ever did it. And so. For the most part so it depends on how much of a -- accurate. Comment it's gonna be an individual like you know he's gonna come back in April and have done the work video now all they always like when he started. It's retreats are never questioned in the boaters aren't working -- I -- now I mean I'm sure that. -- this -- that much about -- a remote stretch anybody in. And is asparagus because sweater. Trying to make sure that whatever it -- of these things are real caught that remark -- it is the goal because a lot what does it abundantly.
do you think Charlie Manuel should have -- peavy in the third when Mets who stepped up there with the bases loaded.
I help you -- I don't I. Mean I think. So it certainly -- would have been eight point one thing but it was recognized as weakness both organic and I don't. That'll be an apple and at all because of -- and Roy are -- at the worst the year.
Never would you rather have a strong JJ you have to immediately lefthander who was more current.
I don't -- IQ you can question almost want -- open matter well they are the Yankees. Gonna get it that you get and it's whether it's accurate and well stated it would it. Games they need to -- a -- like -- then. Was going to be the issue.
do you -- got the San for a couple months that John Damon would be considered. By the Red Sox would they bring him back here would be a good move.
You know -- heard about -- I don't I don't know eighty matter I would just wild. Here that -- We wanted to go to court we -- Back. And and I. Know it's not. Like it would be. It's got they have any questions that are out and out.
I would doubles -- they would. She should cliff police have started three games.
I'm -- little. Apostle but -- You know but the fact of the matter want to. Because I know and it's worth up to order when you're just saying I want the ball and good to go into it and three days' rest. -- materials. I'm not going away. You know and end. You know idle idle at -- want to without but I don't be so you want.
It never fails to -- bigger when I watched a team celebrate a World Series or any championship the the other team gonna sit there on the bench last night's case stands or in the dugout. And watches that almost a sort of like you know. Rob the scab off the wound and pour some them hot inside that won't it to Syria in their brain -- that this is what I wanna be in this -- Wii game. I wanted to understand what is guy has got ring is a god has been there and an -- and now recently retired. When you watch that last night what kind of feelings does that dredge up I understand you were sitting in the opposition dugout you were sitting watching at home what does that do what do you think -- we -- last night.
Well I did not want to I expect. But I don't want to offer not affect the loan I want it. -- wanted to personal respect because it didn't that the beat Cuba regularly to remember it's painful lots. And edit it something that you know weak -- in the what are your -- what are your. There on the -- you know that the -- you're thinkin' through those things -- like you know they're they're things of what should make sure that they don't happen again. Always required it.
