You know kind of just happened so fast you know it it just -- like you know we. We will win and then we're looted and it was over soak in that -- and spoke armed.

It's been a lot of good players aren't -- you want you to pick so -- actually do."

" Dustin you mess and mention it happening so fast lot of Red Sox fans of echo those same sentiments that three game sweep the way it ended there. -- in game three with your guy on the mound Jonathan Papelbon. Can you put your finger on May be one or two things that that went wrong for your team that -- led to that three game sweep and season."

" Old you know we've got to outplay basically -- date date they played better than we did it. You know -- happens in Iraq went you know the that they years past we outplayed them on. That's why we moved on so. You know we didn't -- Grossman about so well. You know I I understand that. You know you'd a couple of those opportunities jumper and very -- really good pitching. You know we we needed this week about better that the beat those guys really did the first couple games -- we we finally did it. You know they just came back -- without a doubt that's a really good team that beat us so. You know we we. And I just happened not that reading reading it -- Milan this year and hopefully next here you know it's going to be a lot different."

" Heading into that series did you feel pretty causing compliment but pretty good about how you guys are set up from the pitching today heading to a everything do you feel pretty good about things."

" Obsolete and we know. We we have a great team if you look at our team on paper and the guys that are character that we bring out. Don't play as hard every day we we they have great pitching you know we dismissed in recent play very well not. That's what comes out there in October in if you play well he went. You know it doesn't matter could count 20 or through water 30. Like ever wants on you know what they did know for a few you know streak and play well you know you're -- went so. You know --"

" Dustin take us inside you know your thoughts the locker Romeo backing amend your swept out of the playoffs it ends with with pap on the mound. You know what's that feeling like for you you know how how hard do you take it in and what's that first hour like. After that defeat on that Sunday afternoon."

" Are having it is still aren't the only you're. He spent more time with which your teammates more than do your family and you know. It also -- upsetting -- some of the guys leave and you know you might not play with someone in -- life you know he disputed that. You know just -- it's it's it's not it it's definitely not where we we saw the seat and ending our educated -- and so. -- it's just a tough feeling basic acquire right on the work hard Nazis and you know come back next -- yeah stronger stronger. You know -- ago could -- the supreme respect."

" So who it was that said couple years ago you go in the offseason he says okay my goals become faster than on Cox team are you know Guerrero are whoever. And it's couple. If he became faster and that image translate into the stolen bases so -- or something that you're going to be this offseason and -- you know working athlete performance is here because they move was or somethin' that -- you're going to this year really focusing on."

" Are saved they have me not I actually my. I'm late Saturday -- I I felt. I got banged up a lot of felt like. Elect -- and it's not that I was the year before so -- this year will work out speech stuff from the you know make sure a mixture of help -- drop all year and as I wanna be out there every single game -- help our team didn't do stupid things -- All that that cosmetic victories just just maintain our audience and get referred for the long all."

" We've talked about how tough the years just what year was of do you win the MVP. Yet to go through all the extra attention everything else that happened. When this season was over it dude did you get a chance to your -- take a deep breath and -- he often you know -- you know is it really sucks -- the fact that. This season's over by. It I'm gonna need this break -- need to get -- really regroup going into next year."

" Not really every now opt out of our -- the plan right now all they got -- one every -- Martinez you know real. We don't care about personal stuff we didn't care about winning games and not. You know we wanna be out there what do people in the World Series tonight but you know but not happen for so. But I want -- to regroup and will be back will be stronger. It prompts that."

" What you talked about sink about a teammate you may not play with again -- you mention watch in the World Series I wonder how closely. You keep science on the free agents up it's gonna happen in about a month or so Jason Bay. Who's been a big party your team he talked about how much he loved playing with guys like you guys like you close a couple days ago. Have you thought about that that you may not play with Jason Bay again as he gets -- free agency and a couple of weeks."

" You know -- and no I wrote about that I actually went to dinner with on the night that -- before we we not Boston. What you guys with with a better you know just talk -- it. Are you know are obviously we -- He shows up every single day put Arctic and you know he he he's a great guy and a clubhouse I mean. Two obviously as a player is very well run or RBI guy. Army on used the hit in the clutch hitting. You know aside about the -- say about Jason Bay and obviously as a as a teammate you know there's. We we want him back you know more basics -- No we well hopefully you know created -- but a long time to get to this point so are as a player you don't need very eager. I guess check it out and and -- without their four for itself and assembly are not you know we obviously want to dissipate. Architecture."

" You talked about the clubhouse Dustin it was a seismic shift when -- left fielder was traded -- last year Jason Bay comes in -- Already fitted in that clubhouse that its personality fit with other core group of guys and a team yourself. -- and Kevin Youkilis. "

" All he had -- and not Corey except that it I'm not I'm not -- a week later he was one of the leaders on the team on the -- he's got that you know it's kind of a quiet guy but it. If he gets talked or at least he's actually really funny you know extra. Drop and jokes -- in Iraq and other critics. You can all -- it's. What a great guy a great Family Guy he's he's he's awesome off and be around not. You know Q batters were what seven can't start these these players -- mechanic and he wants the land and our you know that's that's pretty special and got."

" You know you know Bob street team as you know Papelbon very well yes have the same -- and bit on the team of them for awhile. The consensus is that he's gonna use -- the ending the season as motivation you have any doubt that that's not and that's going to be the case that he's gonna use that is to get better to do every asked to do to come back strong next year."

" Absolutely. Our action pat -- text text message got access to make jokes so are part of -- forward on the everybody. I got I was driving I got -- for pat I'm not I don't I don't expresses our drive side Kuwait probably fifties -- I got back around like at your morals -- what what's wrong with you know looking -- you know I acknowledged knowing Derek Hagan and I don't like -- you know. He worked carry -- I'll be ready don't worry though. -- that pops up straighter is very ago so are all on the outward up happy. If he's the guy that's that's reliable he's got a out of for a long time in our era before."

" The -- thinks talking about that statement was the fact that you don't text message. Why you're driving it's clearly parenthood has changed you quite a bit."

" It has and plus figure I really every -- good about it focus on what the text message. It's actually says."

" The -- I can't -- comes and cuts the PSA police -- friends don't let -- has -- the -- drive an -- I smelled of the sponsorship Red Sox second baseman Dustin Pedroia joining us here but Bradford WEEI yeah you're out and you're out west. Seasons all or for your team how much if any are you paying attention the World Series right now Phillies and Yankees."

" Torrealba I watch actually watch every watch every game every pitch some. You know still will -- in in Antigua those -- don't. Not going to be it is going to be great series and in the first two gators have him pitching is. Obviously pitching in this this coming year is. In a takeover but -- you know it's got final score of book is a great offenses and you know it's going to be if if sponsors."

" Is it isn't fair to say that. I just think on the Yankees play this might be the case but with the series in particular that the guy that you're continuing folk songs Derek Jeter and we talked a lot of about. How you admire his game and you guys either pastime became friends over the last couple years but. In these pressure situations on this big stage are you that is paying an extra attention film."

" Gary I'd I'd I'd definitely want to the basket that's a successful playoffs and you know it seems like he. If he's he's calm under there -- the cup situation and not you know that's extremely hard to do. You know on. At the top player in the post season if you aren't that in your heart beat jumps out you know -- fired fired up it's loud. Now you wanna do so well very notre part of what is so apparent he's always you -- looks. He's under control and you know it's is that after -- which goodies inside the ball. You know he he does a great job. It ought to sit watch and not try to take that in in my game in the playoffs -- to make sure -- common in in in -- under control."

The the so let's forget deal for a second this is more important. The -- the wager that we want that used to throw out their for the offseason. Was that a who could lose more percentage of body fat you're me. If if if if if the."

" Well clearly clearly you missed the par Morris I reached -- capacity. And -- clearly this is another excuse for getting out of that but you know what that's fine that's no problem."

" Well you're watching these games -- and I'm not -- as cute the grade out a baseball officials we talked about the instant replay and some of that will call blown calls so far this year. I and the 2009 post season for your stamp -- guys -- a lot of standing around -- between pitches pitching changes. You know our. It's instant replay would that slow down the game. NB a detriment to the players do you think that replay you know in any shape or form. Would -- be okay or is that there's a slow down the game as you guys are trying to you'll get through nine innings."

" You know I I don't know -- everyone's different on anatomy in the games are slow enough especially the playoffs you know he got. 22 minutes were part second or for commercials in between innings -- others. You know this does senate that -- plus plus Scott plus American you know there's a lot of things that go on that that you know kind of delays the game so. These teams work extremely hard to get to this point it and says to have appalled that that arm -- separate moving Carter or something you don't doubt because. Are those -- part jobs and that's. You know it's a bit it's so hard to -- the game itself after. You know they have. Shortest amount of time I've ever states that can make caller it's altogether right so are open it to cup thing but I ticket -- get it right and you know that's part of what that there is rhetorical -- you know a lot of balls where. A question and and then -- would report so it never know maybe a couple of years MI -- the report are not on sister called."
