" Dennis and Callahan feeling parade to the he's the return of flotsam inject him with Bobby Burgundy and John -- in other words. The Sox just wrapped up a four game series with the yanks in the Bronx will break it down while you recover from your long weekend and over. I looked. The deal I've got a hangover you know what got me. You know. I mean that was thrown yet today just because DNC are here doesn't mean near to -- are these all filled up on vitamin water and ready to tell you who weighs more RBIs than Julio Lugo he's got your flag. -- your calls but no sucker calls like last time these two --"
" Ladies and gentlemen but I we've got your attention I've just been handed an American. And horrifying news story on aid all of you to stop what you're doing I'd let him."
" Well expediency what what -- Burgundy. On Sports Radio -- your VW -- EI."
" Supposed to continue the parade is. It is rookie -- you are ticked me I remember when last time we -- together and touched experience good show. Less soccer. It and that was going to go to Halas went right to do it and that -- from -- with the it was more for. Citizen Callahan is that they get a little extra time off for a before the July did you -- artwork and holiday. Work every single -- buying in and see if -- law now won't see. If that once worked -- exciting and busy staying that is on TV box in front -- and I thought some fireworks I was that the -- in person."
" And even smell whistle for I was totally immersed. In the culture that is a a huge baseball reality yeah absolutely that's -- good to just just unbelievable. A little more current events show where absolutely that's right but the thing about it is is that you know we get. You get to travel with your your child who's you know plays and -- sport every year there are with a child yes with child I don't know I did not coach I don't know any of that is time to play bad just try to be supportive for a change that I spent 1819 years coaching baseball and excellent coaching a team in a different league this year put. This league I am staying out of but it's it's always wonderful when you go on the road and in you know we -- in Connecticut yesterday. And you can watch your son play in the going up against a team that it was just a powerhouse right most these teams are right. And the pace it's etiquette baseball beat Connecticut based trust -- in the -- trust me trust me they -- they were impressive. But it's it's amazing when the parents and the other team bark. -- good things their kids do. -- the success I like you gotta be cute and I did Jimmie did you mean literally bought stock market -- Dog parks and these guys -- at fifty gotta be fifty plus from a greater than mine signal -- the dugout you know typical Little League dads that are testing and on the presence -- every pitch scream and -- and in the coach for this team was just -- he has been -- what is it. And said needs instructions for these kids every -- What can now look at here at the basket and make use debit like shots. Season -- Clarkston do you and your parents like me hours we show them. Which we shoot me and it's like you've got to be joking me I could not. I'm so happy that you aren't ago we played team like that all the time but it's fairly normal and everybody is -- good experience in in Allen and immediate Little League parents and hey you baldness the what you do you know and any other sport whether it's basketball or football or pop Warner in the if you do but. It was just totally floored through tires the reactions not the cup -- book from the parents on this thing it was just. Yet profoundly Estrada and comedy -- me dumbfounded by that's the sticking it and that's why I'm Tanya yeah. Told you I'm 44 okay would you drastic would you but would you park was your trust held at at at a at an athletic of now I just plays -- Yeah I'm relatively silent when I watch sporting event I don't understand the booing -- understand the cheering nicer and partly yeah exactly. Right now are two real -- to secure transition to real bark at Manny Ramirez it's almost changed my mind about Boeing. Just this just -- I'm -- our meter I'm still trying to figure out now watching him go through that. Those pitches three pitches last night and I'm like going okay. Is he is upset that he's there at the plate and it was supposed to be his day off right. Is he so I mean no what was he look then I'd like -- career batting average as a pinch hitter. It can't be very good thing it's a bunch of times what was the I don't you know first of all the fact that the Sox all the signs. And they had a chance to as I believe Tim McCarver and we don't give him often enough credit here. And probably rightfully so now but belittle is on Saturday when he's the Sox -- able to win they would've dealt. Having one now or World Series championship in in early. I I would taken out because they lost a game in the ninth inning they would have been banned that wouldn't -- ten games absolutely there's no -- Yankees could come back from -- said they would just be emotionally you know pummel the -- Second yeah. What do you think it was -- was terrific -- in -- It was a one of his better most of the time gonna say that the one thing go right field -- that it would -- with -- that -- around there it was a Carter channeling something it was a sixties this they could agree that since we're just. Yeah put that. You know Nadal seeking to stand it didn't know because and indeed both you and a car right think would would suggest that if the Red Sox had won that game twelve to 2. That you wouldn't be saying that it was a knock -- blow what you're suggesting that the wave they would lose a game in July yeah it would be the knock low capitalists not. And Damon and -- and Jeter and these guys would be crushed it it. That three -- think that the Yankees."
" With their pedigree I'm with the serve you know history of winning all those guys on that team in many of those guys have already won championship Mariano Rivera would be a I'm a mere Shell of himself if he had lost that game he never be able to recover from that loss -- would panic and for that now TG I remember -- the Yankees would have difficulty catching the -- sacks in the -- because they would be ten games back not because Mariano Rivera blew -- save with a two run lead in the ninth inning well. I seemed dude you know at at -- you know I thought -- arm was more pressure Moses and analyzing Jason Garrett to -- defensive woes on Saturday not blocking the plate effectively. Not able to get it past a ball and all star cops thought that. -- did start to -- start -- his contract and second on Jason Ameritech if -- catcher in the American League is -- defense doesn't GO Jose Molina -- ago yeah he's a good defensive yet you know this brings to mind though is that I guess I'm sorry if I'm just not -- your sophisticated of baseball fan but this he calls a good game thing. As if any of us it's -- it's almost like saying that the that right tackle had a great game -- like that you know nobody -- an offensive lineman is having a great game and nobody knows that Jason Varitek calls a great game but we all say it enough times at Monmouth -- it's -- an offensive -- great -- while the quarterbacks and stacked in the running back rushes for you know -- Plano line -- about -- it's silly. -- an extremely high school as tennis to. As a Texas. Did play -- the on the -- and Lawler up until it was because I was not an -- or anything soft ones just. I'm just in the temple of the Simmons is my junkie tonight and that's exactly right -- got pancaked about that just."
" I seem to think that -- in abilities Jason Varitek and abilities. Things are kind of like piling up a little bit here now at a very crucial time it was the Sox come back this root for this road trip three and seven. They're now five games back overall although looking at some of the numbers this morning games remaining in the season. It's a significant advantage for Boston is that at thirty wore on there. Road games remaining or Tampa bay has 43 road games remaining and tip my next door neighbor yesterday said. Those those days I mean -- about a you know -- you know and I'll discuss I was had no. I'm Howard about the Sox right now because once week I'd say. If if Tampa. Is where they are right now in six weeks then I think you have cause for concern we have not hit the dog days of August yet. Much less really July but have we -- we can get into all."
" August he -- because as if the Yankees were five games up on the Red Sox do you view it differently than if Tampa bay is this really because Tampa -- never been there before -- statistics present and it's because of that now the only two reasons why you should be concerned about the Red Sox because they have the third best record in the American League. They there's nothing wrong with the Red Sox other than that the rays are playing this well the Red Sox have problems in the bullpen means that not perfect little old ladies -- There's nothing wrong with the Red Sox other than the trees are playing well yes because at the top. These were playing like the Tampa bay rays of the past when they -- the Devil Rays and the Red Sox would be in first place in the east because they've got. -- this is really going to cost in this team that's flawed because Jason. I hit and Manny -- there's presently does -- three dead spots -- absolutely they had their -- their line at the minute I was like between fifty and 55 RBI -- very solid -- But they've been played a month without David Ortiz that played for weeks without Josh Beckett they play when it's an taxing. -- I am catching up to them so that other like -- they're a mortal looking team but if -- put -- this season ended today -- that it be in the post season and you wouldn't be that its always like that would. I wouldn't feel that bad about him yeah are you that concerned that you couldn't beat Tampa bay in -- and -- seventy series damaged. We went to a real good things are different story -- saying -- you and -- and what you wanted to mortal lock to guarantee that the Red Sox were going to win the World Series again. Then all you can say that there right in there with the top pitched one of the American League stop freaking out just because Manny Delcarmen hit a rough patch or something like that. Last night is another any comment last night and go to answer no more than a rough patch right -- okay where at what do you think the Red Sox are going to fix that with their millions I mean yeah. Steer well I don't want to come back Gagne went from those -- it's -- god is going to be on them. -- He's intriguing to me anybody else I was encouraged that he might be the lefty Eric -- yeah I think they would -- god is the bodies to get it done. You know you've seen enough from masters and you haven't seen Clay Buchholz along time. -- an awesome stretch from Delcarmen Hansen just hasn't gotten the other thing and you haven't seen enough from timlin -- off the DL out of that talk until we're not a reliever -- every -- is number 42 year old -- and to get paid for staff aces in the middle of your a -- The -- and -- as the spots in the lineup with with and today we here's some talk that they are talking about acquiring catcher. Which is much needed via the -- and I need to replace Eric much screaming -- Art and it didn't get -- yes somebody that can produce. Study here you do not -- to answer and shortstop won't be able to hit the ball on occasion is our starting catcher for the rest of the year we're not as you're starting to put out and getting at doesn't tell. Catcher for the team for the twelve star at Wakefield still has left that's what you need not argument that the thought about an option a bat off the stunts like. Need to be -- It's them as a pinch -- But isn't it a that slump while I would like to see another pinch it off the bat you know we're Sean Casey type of man to -- president to be a catcher and also saying they don't have to go out and get a new middle relief guy you're you're team is allowed to. Had to have you know some question marks as you move for beat -- this team to be perfect at all times I couldn't believe when the Red Sox were the best team in baseball in first place it was like -- do you think the blog -- Dan -- CC sabathia and it's like he hit. Well what kind of a team you think you can build here you've got. Beckett Matsuzaka Lester you're ready for the playoffs right now. But bring the playoffs in right now with -- struggling with Ortiz on the bench and we -- tech in an -- ninety's slump whatever it is and you still have a 5050 chance to beat -- of the rest of the teams in baseball now. Let's fast forward to October when Barrett tech doesn't stink win Ortiz is back in the lineup when you've made -- trading deadline acquisition and over the Red Sox -- season. As favorites -- you have no idea what you -- and Ortiz you know you don't like to get more than we do what you get from you know -- and Chelsea last and it becomes back. We are still some discomfort when he swings and -- don't know what you're going to get do you mean you don't know what you're going to get the CPC to six. -- At least David Ortiz he's still stands up there with a threatening everybody and they get a lineup better at least these different pitchers and they have they go back to their rules and things like that let's just say when this is anxious to. I -- if he singles to doubles Saturday he has his powers reduced his act you anticipate gave Italy he's coming back in the singles hitter. -- rob wrist injury or Bob wrist injuries and -- you Iran a cut you're on a -- an -- in jail time. This just in wrist injuries can reduce the player's power. Absolutely I'm Andy you can reduce a forty home run guys powered down to twenty home runs or something like that it's not like he becomes absolutely that lets you guys if you want to say what you get from David Ortiz then and I say I don't know what I'm going to get from J. D. Drew I don't know I'm going to get from Manny Ramirez you'll get from any of these guys just -- you. He comes back -- Red Sox are not. It's a yes it does a problem that's solemn looking for Sox will be a better team that Ortiz is different line is it enough to catch Tampa. Of course it's enough to catch dampen their five games back with like -- 75 the play. Is there seems to be plenty of time to catch Tampa which just five minutes ago you were about talk about the dog days of August and a young team that hasn't been there before with odd minutes ago it started like long 750 -- I just -- last night with. The will again -- promised that their best road team. There it's absolutely the 21 point on the road the six and fifteen against the AL east on the with a this has to be an -- plausible explanation for that I don't understand -- this year it's seems like there's an awful lot of teams just teams are able to at least play 500 on the road and then dominated home to Tampa bay at Tampa bay is doing that very thing and in the Red Sox obviously are having struggles on the road you're -- campus the championship team and Red Sox suggests this afterthought you just -- Since it's not to be okay but according to. -- We talk and today because they lost the Yankees over the weekend a 200 million dollar team that does have some characters some -- they lost two games the Yankees -- lost because last night they put any career Ramirez and a pinch hit in the ninth inning who's ticked off -- back on his day off now. Maybe that was -- but for the for the entire rug you know shoving so what is actually the whole -- like nobody was -- approach was to. -- Is that. The concept that. If you send anybody else up to the plate anybody else up to the plate and they looked at three pitches -- what a lousy at bat. Many goes up and looked at three pitches and you start to wonder the heat do that on purpose. I mean really I'm not that I'm not Saidi did. But I'm saying that you'd be lying to yourself if -- at least have that thought all and Salinas is and took just three -- go boss and my the first reaction was. -- They were three -- three pretty good look and pitches. And two to sixty. Have been fooled he -- been you know you know a rusty sit on the bench that pay attention is is focused might have been -- that the analysts -- is focused might have been off but I understand at least the thought because this is a guy who we've. We've wondered before is he faking the injury we've seen him not run out ground balls with -- he's got a history that makes you think that we saw the game a couple of years ago where he refused to pinch hit you know. And so then he steps up there and it does that eagle summit and did you do and understand that it's. It and it's a strange situation and to be watching game and the look of the player and of those spots that you wouldn't have about any other player."
" In all of baseball but we have them about. Our -- Manny Ramirez 616 and 77 -- in his early fifty. The toll free line 888525850 contenders emailed to Dennis and Callahan WEEI dot com. Curt Schilling will be joining us -- this morning approximately 840. A John brook and power on channel 5 in this morning for DNC would -- The Sox losing last night and Jennings in the yankees' early on the agenda tonight. The all star rosters were released the Sox will representative. Some may be a little bit of surprise for their inclusion would get more into that there was a major trade in Major League Baseball last night know the Yankees did not get CC sabathia. -- Red Sox did not give him either we'll talk about who did with a not have any effect. On this particular part of the pennant race and you know there was a tennis match I believe it was a Wimbledon final yesterday and I have already heard from some of the pundits on line. Just to some other people were not on the radio say that it was the single greatest tennis match maybe ever played in history I've uncomfortably over some of the Bjorn Borg Jimmy Connors stuff and I saved about your -- watched in history they'll when he wants yet. I I don't if you watched it or not but we might get in dude do you are about that is well it's. -- for the NC WEEI."
" Twenty sports the two balls two strikes two outs in the fifth."
" The latest and greatest worst loss of the season all are so many of them on this three and seven Roche it's man he's fault. It's she's still going to get a large part of the blame job let's not forget the Red Sox bullpen. Hobby and that opened eyes who would run through good stretch through seventh inning Robinson -- know. The plate and and why that happened -- askew. -- Just a cookie right down -- We -- big -- of fortitude to lead. And it was game five to four intent Brett Gardner the immortal Brett -- three hits and three steals in his. Major League career and that's just a Yankee team we're talking about -- him Brett Gardner started seeing eye single off. Oh by the way the usually flawless Jonathan Papelbon. Who is now allowed three walk off hits this year is three and three as ERA is almighty god over two in the and like to collapsed like in his entire career -- dream come this year three of this year and he wanted to strike out wasn't us. Closer -- power and woods does Joe Morgan. And I -- go and the worst convention perhaps of all time giving Joba isn't -- zone actually like but it -- I'm true this is our sport accomplished should moment era Dennis and Callahan. It'd say yeah these things together to bits and understood that things -- and after that."
" We're complain about Papelbon given -- game winning hit last night we don't think he's a problem in the bullpen you're makin' fun of Javier Lopez has just gave up the triple you know to tie the game but he's and the area two point 34 he's not really the problem in the bullpen the problem with the bullpen is that you guys and fans expect them to be close to perfect every time a guy comes in in the seventh inning of a 42 game if the Red Sox don't win that game -- blame the bullpen. They definitely have issues Delcarmen and struggle and -- say nothing she gambling the bullpen into the into the just. But the bullpen is going to fail frequently that's what's -- that's why they have ER raise above zero the bullpen if they if you make nine appearances and three times you give up -- that you think in the bullpen stinks I'm thinking and the area three. What are you expecting from your bullpen not everybody's like -- like this coming bang boom town while it be nice if the blue Red Sox bullpen did that and I am telling you if they've got 52 wins when they get to complete games. So the bullpen it helped them win like it at 61 run defeats on the through six suggests -- tell. Yeah right 611 game and I managed tells me that the ball and it's hit a rough patch now does that mean that they don't have agility due to Manny Delcarmen pitched well last year he was lights out in most of June and then all of -- and so would die of sudden we just. Bail on him about saying that they are perfect and I think that we didn't think I'd tell me even when things that would tell but I'm just saying. When you talk to me about 61 run loss that you can talk about the bullpen all you want and opt outs or David Ortiz his name out actually again. You start losing games by one run with one of the best hitters in all of baseball in the dug out more now even with the team that I'm suggesting to you that you might have won a couple of those games and if -- won. Three of those six run losses Elvis on their 55 win team of the second team that second best team in baseball and I think he'd be a little worried about a 150 million dollar fifty numbers normally and yeah exactly two minutes average for the -- of the morning -- one number two. -- You line quite a bit but today you know you just you -- way to reasonable I'm trying to suggest and sixty -- When we have these conversations when the Red Sox have Bowe lost back to back games over the weekend and that rays have won seven straight -- it's easy to focus on what the issues are like that I don't think these are big issues if the the injury problem with your team is health. And you needed next that you need Doug Brocail then I don't think you've got that many issues -- out of town jail. Governor smack him download it or at least give us something that we can get you know upset about it win."
" I conducted tried that here's the larger issue now Manny Ramirez enters the game is a patient effort Kevin Cash in the ninth inning. And yes I have a -- out if it. Well he has not not because who's on the map of the Yankees job or Chamberlain he throws hard but to what -- tickets up to a fastball right now by the way I -- last -- big -- Dennis has a very large rewritten -- system does mimic common and knows -- he also walks around like this grain is wouldn't say. He's too young to walk with the presence that he has yeah. I think he's all that he has an idea to some days that you love right yeah --"
" top of the word to -- to nowadays any old fox show when I was at Fox25 he came on. Instead somebody on the Red Sox or Patriots had a certain to win day and Jeff Cawley who is the sports guy with me at the time we've both what that it and -- Where have you gone accredited. To each extension just -- there."
" Oh thank you Nomar so miss it comes open tonight that you think they have a chance at that point -- city. Or four game Mariano Rivera on the mound and three pitches. Looked set three pitches on shoulder he drops to five for 31. On the road trip. Thirteen strikeouts he's twelve for his last 65 that's a 185 average in his last twenty games. Not as does Varitek but close. And here's to Harry on the pinch hit."
" But that doesn't Jordan. Made good decisions it's not normal times it also doesn't think he can get two free throws to put that. That's stone dust on an issue could. Actually do -- I am just -- good results won't -- we're looking for there from a."
" I mean holy cow what are more pitches that he liked are you kidding right. It's -- ticket he wasn't expecting cutter from Marion or not would you expect I would think that was common. While I would just think that and judge in a month style points because with with what -- It can't and that's I suggest that you we are judging him on style pointless and and that type may or may not be accurate and if he had swung at the three pitches and went down swing and we'd say ours is dead right exactly right because -- your dad them. We're looking at him differently yeah we did the industry committee definitely was fine. Rather it's nice for the Jack McCormick on against and you know tennis it was that on top of dollars and I don't know Totenberg but he was disciplined he was fine. So it's a red sacks don't you know approved -- behavior. And they took a really toughs it big of them you know it's that -- than that to not a crew pushes the sixers will provinces that accidents on the come on I'm just mad at -- at an organization and gums like think about it you know. Terry Francona thought hope that aren't the set I got something yet pulled pulled look at this moment with -- that the kind of oil will tell you before you get out of here that SEC's -- guest is no longer. It it's simple and I'm Sonya hot ticket all I think CC's give you think he's made up for I don't know when -- when -- we should just measured their -- what do you think would have -- portrait major cross right who's got him. You decide revolution soccer again stock. I like them both and professional athletes -- the big behind the brewers and Indians agree in principle to a deal for the reigning AL cy young Award winner it's contingent on paperwork being finished. Here's the deal Cleveland gets minor league outfielder Matt or Puerto. Bull to really -- forty homers and 66 RBIs in double A Huntsville. -- on others they're getting on low -- pitcher rob rice and whoop Holler and details at all about. In exact -- Jackson is also a triple -- pitchers and a fourth player to be named later. So they're getting. -- package of minor leaguers for sabathia who might just be a rental for Milwaukee but he very good rental at that very large rental. You know who cares if your Milwaukee right now you don't -- in the playoffs and -- right. So why not. Absorbed through his sabathia free it is you lose Ben Sheets who might -- as well getting five draft picks in the first that the top 35 -- restocking yourself -- Tampa right stock market system to begin in Tokyo and I think that's a good move by it might Milwaukee 12. I -- affected CC's vehemently like that. If you can't come to Boston which you know league in -- figure that the -- would make a serious run at at least he's not in the Yankees financially she's not in Tampa's hands. Which was the of the -- rumor about a week ago was that. You don't Tampa bay was comic series on a CC sabathia looked at the edges and -- the ratings be for a World Series between Tampa bay and Milwaukee death"
