[15:06] ..." take offense if -- and this interview so we can talk to Jon Lester. Actually I'll go back out to the longest and and -- sort of work that I've ever -- in this thanks that"...
[0:00]" Every Tuesday at this time. We talked baseball with Ken Rosenthal from fox sports. Foxsports.com and of course the Major League Baseball package on fox as we watched last weekend hello Ken --"
[0:11]" Morning yet to greatness the Rosenthal always a pleasure I don't. I'm Michael but -- view right ever -- I'll good column -- I feel like to have them on the -- Oilers tickets real laundry. I missed the game call now all."
[0:34]" The reason -- California right now and I would bet that throughout the first it's a Long Beach state game last night long ago. So while most of -- it was -- finishing touches it is jam. I was just trying to regional late but obviously would -- I change I'm not sure what -- said there by. It's normal part and it's just tremendous story all around game one thing that struck -- a -- of the top. Remember how often Jon Lester -- you traded the A rod trade of course the closest. Game he also of course was mentioned with Minnesota at these last offseason winners and you'll feel on and."
[1:24]" I want to ask you about the Red Sox minor league system in the second submitted it to the -- do you go to Long Beach state."
[1:30]" I mean look at a bit about it this -- be ever at this spot. I didn't not a terrible beach state I have no connection with Long Beach state. But there's a marketing -- is in there all week. And it is I was really flattered. So I figured okay I look at California much but I do -- out here I'm won't. -- it was Monday in the middle today what can happen. Do at least reached the plate. Or strike actually fighting myself from third and I -- don't get a strike at any of that Jon Lester well."
[2:11]" And I did mention that the Red Sox minor league system mean this is really confirmation that the Lester no hitters confirmation they've been doin' good job the Buchholz no hit there was confirmation Q and a good job masters and came up -- don't know that are obviously but. Look pretty good. How what I know here in Boston and in New England we're excited about that the minor league prospects the Red Sox how -- they viewed throughout industry."
[2:37]" Very highly and certainly when you have the production they've gotten in recent years and of course it's not -- Lester buckle. It's Papelbon it's the right. You coolest now felt very if Jed Lowrie probably won't play Award -- not this he's in the future. As a whole bunch of players in a relatively limited amount of time. A good farms system. In the estimation of many people who -- all churns out one. Good player for year one player of the contribute to your Major League -- They've done that and gone beyond that and really it's a testament to what Theo Epstein -- I think equally -- Which is we're trying to build a player development machine. Basically they've done and it. Pretty impressive."
[3:32]" As Sean McCadam pointed out the Providence journal today. In the last forty home games at Fenway Park. We -- Clay Buchholz and now Jon Lester throw no hitters. And you know Justin Masterson going to make another spot start today you talked about some of the other Michael Bolton and others young person making their way through the system. And you wonder that they have room for everybody."
[3:54]" Boy that's a really difficult problem and that they -- an awful. Really tip top I hope they can figure out just what to do with all the good players. If they don't have room. It certainly we'll figure out trades or ways to use these key that it it that clearly. Masters in. Oden the rest of the group coming up behind. They're not necessarily obvious dude is Buchholz Lester have been so for. You don't know how all these guys and out cricket great example. They can't might instill the quality reliever but it hasn't. So ultimately. The players you mentioned churn out to the guys contribute to Major League level in the there isn't room because it's not and Beckett that are. You'll find ways TDs and in the all and foreign trade and ultimately. The team better team always -- by a good productive on system. I -- countless examples they'll the other way and it was entered organization."
[5:04]" You know can you mentioned the Red Sox in their success their minor league success and just that the the thought that if you got a good it's good. Farm system you're putting somebody new in the majors every year that's exactly what the Orioles did under Earl Weaver. For many years but those Orioles didn't have the resources that the Red Sox have now I wonder how does this. Combination what does this allow Theo Epstein do on one hand he's developing these kids on the other hand he's got money he's got top five money. What do you think that's going to result --"
[5:42]" First Roy -- it -- more aggressive in the draft they can hit higher signing bonuses. They can now worry about -- slot which the commissioner's office recommendation or particular spot in the trap. The Red Sox have done it to a certain extent at times he used to their advantage I don't know it certainly specific spot. Teams generally do in the larger revenue situation the tigers have done most notably. It went well above slot emanated wealth of spot rich -- It is again for Marcelo -- of course it turned Miller -- in new Miguel Cabrera and Dontrelle Willis. So when you have that kind of money -- incredible advantage. You you also the possibility of doing something like it it with Daisuke under a dollar investment and it in English you'd never to worry about drafting of players you want without. But with fear that you might not find the -- that can't it would be represented by Boris they use that they would be -- right."
[6:49]" As things continue to sort of get rosier in rosier around here they get grammar and grammar 200 miles to the south of here at what point does mount Steinbrenner erupt."
[7:02]" He basically issued a fairly measured response New York Times if it was yesterday or today. In which he said. What he has said before which is Joe Girardi -- to orange. And that Brian Cashman well they -- it's going to be that way all season unless they turn around. Is it possible Cashman it is last year I think is very possible. We went through this before years back in the final here -- contract and number about the equipment -- thought it would leave. They'd been through this would not just with George but now. And -- clearly is going to flex its muscle and wave at George -- perhaps the seventies and eighties and Brian Cashman on an option so. This could indeed about to -- change it was easy to be yanked. -- keep in mind in some respects it is -- in the transition. And they too are trying to do with the Red Sox have done. Over the last couple of yours there a little -- are in the process in the eighties and he would not as -- neither the pitchers were thrown no hitters for the Red Sox last forty games. -- there's a ton of money of apparel in the -- with a 75 million. He sees the bat is out there more shares out there. The creation -- in general is better than one a year ago that they will be in position to fix things in a hurry. I'm not sure it happens this -- I have never thought they were loyalty. But it's difficult to judge them right now when he it would that it -- if you take for an. As a Red Sox equation. David Ortiz and political political football Barrett at offensively because. I think it's -- is about up else that you. That's pretty and the Red -- may be able overcome. But it's real strange and that's with the Yankees are going right now he's in their rotation pitched."
[9:12]" Ten in the past couple weeks we've had three small to mid market teams sign their players. To long term deals that Scott Kazmir with Tampa. -- Ryan Braun of Milwaukee in Hanley Ramirez with Florida what is this smartest or most creative signing out of those three your opinion."
[9:30]" Most respectable players from the clubs they're all great. I had on the about the players' perspective well that's a question."
[9:42]" Can't -- will be created 28 so his -- shorter I think it's probably the best four player. Of the group that you're taught -- as he was okay well player's perspective and -- pain. It's very difficult to say it kind in the states we took 45 hours and brought it -- if I -- that. At the same time the older age or experience age will tell you. That they believe these players and so millions of dollars short it tends -- short game you can understand that perspective as well. A player's perspective hey money in the bank bolster the same time Ryan brought back soreness and this week."
[10:31]" I love -- I don't love his game."
[10:32]" Absolutely and it looked like he can be one of the game's next great hitters. If you -- to arbitration two years now -- to them pretty darn well."
[10:43]" I don't know if you got a chance to see the the Sunday night game that the Mets Yankees game we saw an exhibit 2432. All of why Bud Selig has got to get his head out of the sand and understand that a simple change. Would make the game better the general managers voted for limited video review for exactly that kind of like. Why does Bud Selig continue to plod along in the eighteen hundreds on this thing."
[11:09]" Yeah -- which -- he's worried about eight to. And certainly that's fair."
[11:14]" Can got I'll interject here. It took longer to argue and get it wrong that it would have taken to get it right."
[11:22]" out as a set of what you. Yes it what is reason. That's his primary reason I think he is the traditionalists. In this particular are you worried that the game will slow down -- to worry about these issues in the -- her. 1015 years. That's set the proper thing to do is if you use instant replay on boundary -- old ones. Fair -- it's better not -- the basis where human element of the umpires should remain. But on simple matters it can be resolved pretty easily with the replay. One Sunday was embarrassed and I don't blame the umpires that early even though."
[12:06]" I blame home plate umpire."
[12:08]" Well he can said he blew it bail these guys are human being nordic -- Erica they should have the ability on all like that too. Consult the latest technology which we always use every day. And get it right and that's the only point you'd be -- said he was sorry that he screwed up don't know what we can ask them yet the people to call was. It's difficult claw. We footwork helped all."
[12:37]" It's interesting that you say. Bud Selig isn't traditionalists and traditionalists as the biggest advocate for the wild card which most most traditional -- of hate."
[12:48]" wonder they played. Yeah the right down the line."
[12:51]" Is this is this something you think we'll see in two years."
[12:57]" It could happen next year. It's just the matter when he decides to get on board and it last night issue of size and an issue occurred in the post season game. -- World Series gain the outrage were such where. You wouldn't -- it's such an outcry -- that would of it's not very already Cleveland last year to me was enough. That would have very difficult hole even with replay if you remember in the -- yet."
[13:26]" But that was -- right call wasn't because you it."
[13:28]" You look directly at their right and more often or not they do get it right by. Our boundary calls in on all of runs wind I just see no reason -- you you're limited. You make sure that he has not -- one challenge for game whatever the case might be children -- it by. The whole point always should be get it right in the year several years ago. They instituted this siege or umpires in which they conference change call it. There's enough of consensus that it should be overturned that it helped me it is ultimately be game time. But by and large is led to an -- quite often not well this is the next logical extension."
[14:12]" Which team is having more disappointing start to the season the Yankees are the tigers."
[14:17]" I -- As a I think the Yankees their transition. With the injuries also want to be expected the tigers or this team that many of us thought which were nine under -- They've been shut out that it. The pitching which was suspect has been much more disappointment -- whatever match. And the scene in general teams play without any soul."
[14:42]" It's a bad. The pieces don't fit it should never got around offensively and while accountant out of it. You know if asked I talked to this -- yesterday said. This team needs to wake up quickly or could be -- last was well. And he didn't mean on May be nineteen to one of the point first unit on September 3."
[15:06]" Can you take offense if -- and this interview so we can talk to Jon Lester. Actually I'll go back out to the longest and and -- sort of work that I've ever -- in this thanks that I didn't. Daycare and Ken Rosenthal from fox sports that leaves us on that line"
