" Right now when -- talked to a guy knows about baseball we are fortunate enough it's enough. Talk to every Thursday -- general all fox sports what's -- knocking -- tickets and and your old buddy Michael what's the Michael Greg worked -- not again. You do it. We're we're doing great you know that's the way right now we've been talking about it for a couple hours that morning. A Curt Schilling made some news twice already this week or so we have a few more days -- it'll come up with next make some news. Like calling out Barry Bonds. And then apologizing for his statements on Barry Bonds what is your take on what Curt Schilling has done this week. That's quite an open and the quite. Is that I let it all reported that."
" out. Obviously excellent practice because I don't know. And I've heard it criticize me here as players yours spirited personal. Getting things wrong well in the span of basically once -- It would all those with regard to pot and it didn't interest big spot because people criticize -- too much in and of course sportswriter Israel secrets as I speak to not -- well we -- both weight on got to have an opinion into it at the most. When he says things at the same time. As a player as someone who was in the public -- certain responsibility and when he harps on everyone else need to. Find your responsibility that is irresponsible well you opened himself up to get in -- most type thing about the whole incident. What went Francona went after it because of course they're very close some people believe that. Schilling is partly responsible now partly responsible for record against got off well. When -- go off on if -- know he crossed the line you know because a lot of we'll do it again probably and the quality as here is. That what you do your credibility next time people optimistic."
" You know -- I'm not saying what we do here sports writers and sportscasters is saving lives but yet they. After this latest round of episodes for Curt Schilling started out you have to speculate amassed you do that but -- they -- a little more respect. Four for the media and what they have to do on a daily basis in terms of of getting things right now that he has gone through this."
" No I don't think -- activism background I wrote a -- and scores career. Started his -- topic today. You're basically. Young guy while it streak it has an air it. Boost but it -- that he is -- it is either Artest or something more. I've never understood why he gets into a much with the regret it when -- perfect. States but as a pitcher that white people make mistakes -- And closers you try to bet. Whether pitcher -- your sports -- or sports writer or I just working 95 job at -- replicate. I think that's all you can ask urged. And I think when he gets involved in the media criticism and all that. He is not doing so the circus because there are a lot of good people on a -- that there's some bad people there's no question about that but for the most part. Even media creation in many ways and I think you understand that it bikinis secure up high horse I don't know probably ought to great idea. That we reached out to their fans. Personal way without -- great new world the world course is concerned that stuff all at the plate but. He had placed and you want to get that we -- that's but you draw."
" This was the first time that Curt Schilling. Love the bomb at Barry Bonds in 2000 he said it I go from every day of the week and twice on Sundays when he retires is being a first ballot hall of Famer. But he still going to be the biggest -- whoever lived NASA's team -- as anyone their team or in their clubhouse who we is about the reputation Curt Schilling around baseball how bad do you think it is."
" It's great I think players particularly roll their eyes at his comments as persona. Years and while in many ways he is -- players should emulate what this performance and I think it's charity work. Sometimes second slot that I am very commentary on hand for. Do you weekly our sport that they report in baseball has thanks. Pitching -- don't even know. And no one knows it because he is actually in Atlantic coast -- over that was performance and that -- They'll probably people acting definitely happier about it but the concern is what and -- once said about -- of course. Every script -- what is believed every sport between and additionally if I would bat but. It doesn't -- in the court."
" It to the playoff what you just said about nobody's paying attention to what he's doing in terms of being a very good pitcher this year how do you think that plays the club -- Michael and I were talking about that this morning news team the best record. In the American league in everything is going well -- bottom of the order starting to hit. And the story continues to be Curt Schilling in what he says I can't imagine that plays very well inside the clubhouse amongst his teammates."
" I don't think it does Brett and I don't know that the issue is that he's getting more attention they are -- it got like agent Eric here. It's easier -- I think what Michael -- is that children is constantly in the middle. And at -- coping with stuff. The good but it with the team applauding our stock into it so it's quite an act. Because he's certainly triggered but he has response and it -- that was spot but this one was entirely. -- I can't there but no adult yet question yeah I can't hit and accurate too early or in the morning -- block but. Got a responsibility you gotta take seriously you've got to go out there -- not say things that are going to be construed as situated. Interpret it means spear. Personal and began actually incorrect -- spartans."
" Speaking of media attention can let's go 200 miles south of Boston to New York. Roger Clemens announced that he's going to come back to the Yankees and he's probably going to start pitching on June 1 what kind of impact will Clemens have on on New York."
" I don't think his impact in the American mayweather has been bought -- orbit -- will be nearly as if it was actually distinct it. It's that was totally it's their -- of the sample of this. The American league or course but not -- And actually let -- likely it was six in the American league is it I think it hurt at least by any pitcher and I have -- at the Eric I think I could -- but I don't think it's going to be transporting a."
" No no adamant about this -- has to be a five inning pitcher and we think that the the Yankees they have decent scouts and Brian Cashman knows a little little something about baseball. Why would they go out and paid that type of money for a guy they probably knows going to give in somewhere between five and six innings consistent."
" You know it they're desperate at opposite."
" Of course it ripped one player just getting yourself keep -- principle right. And yeah I think -- that -- and pro rated so of course not going to be all or only about 18."
" You know take it. I wouldn't it make it about you read about what 14 or 15 of fox."
" Well operated property -- I think just they felt they had stuff. I'm wondering if created an adequate job because that extra month. Whether potentially in the pedigree that's what -- not the same time. I really question whether -- it up open at all ready tired. What does the addition I think -- hit it -- but he very well -- He's built the same problems they've had reason you're older storied pitching with a exceptional walk in -- so you'd be so productive."
" Ken Kenny -- hearing any about the Red Sox interest did you hearing that it was sincere or were they just making a play. 4 good PR."
" I think it was here. The Red Sox actually Clement makes us that as well I think that well as great -- but. Why not happy that's for possible for the post he wanted to have kept -- injury pain. How the Red Sox succeeded but they it was and the -- it was one's view. We need to be looking at potential -- rotation -- In reserve Tim Wakefield is among league leaders here today and -- in -- You got pretty good chance."
" They're getting the Red Sox -- Toronto tonight wrapping up the three game series Paul Godfrey came out so nobody is getting fired you're not John Gibbons magic be retarded. -- cool right now. How long is that going to laugh at that they've lost eight games in a row do you expect one of these guys to be replaced let's say by the all star break."
" You know I. I actually -- If it happens it happens because. But the nature of the game it would be giving up short short. Well but he may state is why -- injury. Huge mistake yet while while but you know well -- But I don't think he's in trouble I don't think even should be -- team. Well there on the restart setup man closer to leadoff man left fielder and are starting catcher. That book he's got wrecked up there are a lot of well as the Yankees at any. And -- of those of course it is so to me I think he's right now some people to get healthy. We just get better I don't think it should be fired an 81."
" Some people might be shocked at the Milwaukee Brewers are playing as well as they are best record in baseball but. There were actually talked -- and even picked to win their division I saw back in spring training by some people what were your thoughts about the going into the season."
" I -- and I that they were in a potential surprising but with those kinds of course I always want to see it or eight and just never know there's alot to winning it goes beyond your talent learning how to determine or which routine which brewers needed to do. And right now -- are under 14 victory. It doesn't have all but doubles partners 65 on their -- and to -- six game stretch. Which 13 on the road and alot of competition -- the national -- Or bite your first visit to Europe if you're -- Sorted errors in of these series at LA and it on the road. It's going to be a much more truer test but they are legitimate it got a very. Solid I would say starting rotation and that the back of all -- tremble era -- unbelievable strikeout guys that. The ought to -- lately and which is suspect. And -- Is pretty dynamic they've gotten -- players like weeks and eluded J. J. Hardy. Who are emerging as force especially you'll of course and apparently Jenkins -- or sort of really good job as well but there are legitimate. Specialists -- look at the play internationally even -- legitimate -- the Clinton nationalist."
" I was just going to ask you that Kenny I hear you on the seeing is believing but. I'm looking at the national league central standings right now and you tell me which of these teams is capable of making a serious run Chicago Houston Pittsburgh. I had no saint Louis won the World Series last year but they got some other issues I mean what what teams. Below looking up at Milwaukee has the has the talent and what -- teams have a talent to take a walk."
" I think because it they say a lot better in the last 21 the last let their starting pitching which was my question has. They got the number three or 13. I erased those rookies that are those or intently is. 13 which he's a star products are the worst of the top four starters and -- open and try to get it going imagined where not surprising. It was struggle right out of the gate but. It got going now I interpret I have a copy the note that it's secret Soriano well be better at the end. And I just overall respect is pretty cool thing if they they LP --"
" What is the big boys it fox -- love some national love. Milwaukee Brewers implement TV no no -- Yankees this -- late."
" It I don't know Loretta -- that."
" well problem -- guy who's on this weekend. --"
" at facilities that in Almonte or two other games one of them I believe -- angels that Rangers. In the other wanted it like."
" What the brewers have to do what they have to do. To get some love forget that Ken Rosenthal show up at their games."
" Well actually Michael. I looked at it -- last -- of the -- oxygen to the schedule around this time and put them on I would bank -- We would probably do I'm not I don't speak -- terrier got so that up wherever. I think that that has happened in the case were adjusted and it it is again."
" What do Dolan put you one of those sausage customs for the -- the way out. It's because the brewers did it there they're not going to -- in beer and obviously that's been a big story around baseball coming up the heels of the death of but Josh Hancock and some other teams banning beer. Do you think this is something that that baseball will will look at seriously during the offseason in a league wide -- all the teams decide on their --"
" It'll bodies Philippine -- because. Involved entirely -- and you have to involve the report also. Obviously pitchers despite being more obvious issue. So let others I think you're in that this process -- more difficult -- teams do it. The into the for players that -- security union I'm that even happened yet in any case to me. This is an obvious state secure I don't sport traditionally our culture and players for the most part getting out. Problems that much or. Announced problem as it ever was promptly used to accept. There's a liability issue here for the club this safety issue for the players and be very obvious. Our accidentally -- yeah I've ever played horrible or they'll -- alcohol or place. And I don't know that's a bad idea I think it should not be."
" But I guess the flip side is you know it doesn't have to be alcohol but you know a lot of the old timers -- That you have fewer people sitting around talking about baseball not the guys sitting around getting drunk. And getting to -- at the major issue with let's sit around it and and talk about the game and that's how teams build chemistry."
" That's true but that's in the past but he take out all of the -- keep it I just don't stick around -- their own ways. It's a different world now I just don't think that that kind of bonding exploit tape player to take -- right there right. Do with that way instead of flying by air but. The world has changed and get players to stick around -- that --"
" I even even in our desired it was her stories about how patriots put it it would put a tag out following game -- Foxboro stadium. -- ladies 8999 I want to answer the Red Sox had a -- up there for for writers after games to see you right culture is changed and also to places."
" Yeah and that's good org people always say Ottawa -- people -- sports as as -- of the game that you electric afterwards. I can't recall. A time in the last couple years or our budget cut after after I want to sleep. And it's just different world."
" A -- before we let it go you mentioned that you have you working on the commentary on Curt Schilling any other projects you're working on in the next two or three days."
" Got a column on the web site about the cardinals and the struggle without them more. Organization wide then. Perhaps is an average person I think there's issues orders that people oh and as well not yours kind of internal struggling on there. I have a calls are probably pretty -- on. -- improbable places that he might go. And went right in my head right now like it was a -- idea that might help them hold a memo to your -- To the Tribune company owners were saying hey don't worry guys there's that's going to be adjust that in -- Bravo. And all the -- that would be interested and it."
" Now if you do that that's a very tricky column to pull up you might what I can say a consult a guy named Chappelle burst named Dave or hurt they're just so obvious some comedy guys can Beckett bobbled -- right now."
