Ben Cherington meets the media, puts final thoughts on Red Sox moves at deadline

-- bastard was that today. I hit a good. Let's go on doing great. So I I have to point out that it wanted. More character technical baseball. I wanted to look at epilepsy are perspective -- -- relationship that the media can. So first -- all. I would -- it enter it here clearly we're not seeing it and it last year clearly we're not saying it. A lot of it to let you -- in and out happy getting older and less athletic. I would argue that when that purple Rick Warren parallel I think if you can focus more on you know it's into the outside bottom plate. And really working hacker ball a little bit and he could become a productive pitcher brought against the value if we want the look in our culture it. Or what -- -- -- are the PR employed. I think -- that we are saying in Beckett that we all kind of latched on -- we really like I think that's let. At old dog mentality that it has almost yeah let that screw you out of it now that that he would -- it. Would get more of the -- -- managing. The media. Which stock. I think the production line as there is still something that and we can get behind and enjoy it. -- -- you're spot here you bet it was and men -- -- the Internet around. -- AJ I think what you what you say makes sense and on the -- of the three or four pitching coach is Josh Beckett has had. Over the last few seasons. Have said the same thing to bear attacked what you Darrel yeah all right let me tell managers that -- you say especially -- true. It's just a matter of execution. You can get over that -- From him Stella got. And who. Are back on the big show here from Bobby Valentine earlier Alex here came on after that to break down the trade deadline. Right now we're gonna check here and with Red Sox general manager ventured to meet with the media right now let's see what he has to say. Thousands of steps. To try to make the team better and it also opened Timor and and do other things though the team but. In the end you know we we prefer to. To not do things rather than make decisions that and that and that -- -- so. We're happy with -- what we did and and and most importantly we're happy with the guys we have here and it's certainly more reflection on them we believe in the group. Effective as get a chance -- any of the teams. In this cluster teens like La -- to. Games next two months. We scouted him a lot this year. -- its its first. Full year which is the local law it's varies from up mom passed -- -- is more exclusively this here. And he does a lot of things that that we still getting -- can't succeed that it's the big leagues he's. The athletic pizza delivery. He can throw a fastball breaking ball for strike. And reaction not all we think is mainly qualities though. We'll see it's we're taking a chance on I think. Can -- Major League starter. And and these these is this that you have those suspicions. R.'s name out there so that's all that -- Scout project these guys but. We're hopefully -- next. We -- time. Who worked on number of things. You know bigger concepts are concepts. You know we we got close the public things but. In the it is just didn't feel is right for us. You know. Factoring in everything and then and so. This is there actually went and you know wolf we'll move for this is not the last day -- can improve the team I don't know him. They're guys that persona come up from from below AAA and help us this here -- -- -- active. Their August through the treatment process to see if there's listed. Well it's you know we've been it's isn't unfamiliar position you know going back -- late last week. You know you try and balance. The desire to make the team better and and give the guys in the clubhouse every chance -- The reality of where we are -- and as as is the feel about the group of players we have. You know you need to do the math and figure out the cluster teams you and what you need to do actually. Pass all of you know we have we have that we have to -- that against the sort of desire to make the team better so if it was it an additional lair. In the decision making process is here as -- the passwords been. More. You know the more clearly buyers. But we pursue a lot different things. Against some small things some bigger things. But audiences this is what we did. In the end it's exactly what they did it wasn't very exciting press conference that very exciting. -- yes but he has he has great. It's great expectations for Steven -- -- -- -- -- right and so is of the insurance. He thinks in them now but the quote said. I don't know if he said we think we hope we got a starter a Major League starter out of the deal now. If if this guy becomes the starter -- okay. As pretty good deal Lars Anderson for Steven Wright. I don't think anybody really expects these twentieth yet you know -- you trade Lars Anderson plays -- -- So true. Right 28 year old knuckleballer.
