[0:04]" Good morning and welcome to the Dennis and Callahan program as you've heard featuring neither Dennis -- Callahan. -- Mike -- rob Bradford both formally of the Boston Herald now currently fifth WEEI dot com. Officially former. Much rumored. You can also see me at Comcast sports that the home of the Boston Celtics. Or defeat human -- all of this week not a problem mechanical problem. We'll map compared -- that we developed a time every day about Rondell. -- sloppy. All that's a male and what. Note shots okay it's a note that is no Callahan. Note she got you the lead producer. That lead producer. Equals so -- it last night of course. Eight meter. Attic or it's that that is an open open. This would be the football. That today. A couple of days later. -- transparent that received a preview -- Jai digesting. Jot notes Gary notes odds. Muted as the sun and night. Note on the the government tomorrow. Pathetic it's. You know trade quarterback future deals so instead we have the which again real name. Ian Ian -- Just and that's today. Just get that straight to make it so it would be I have lots. Names being foremost among them. Let them. Thoughts from the weekend. So I'll -- the ultimate -- from the weekend. At. Indy here's the simple no one. This verbatim okay. Wasn't me. All of Kevin Nicklaus really really happy every -- Jason -- did something good. The shot and in the dugout after Bay's triple body night seemed to say at all. The -- welcome to this awful awful world but he round. Number -- it. Jason Bay seems to have at least -- He thought number three from -- since April 1 job must've been -- pitcher on the Red Sox he is so fun to watch pitch he works quick and throw strikes. Number four Sox about credited shortstop which at -- opener prism of these now five doesn't it direct hit anywhere in the lineup. Six notice Ameritech handles pitchers great but it becomes a in the late innings with runners on in the game on the line you have to pitch at forum. Also on -- is done in limited time has produced he's a pinch hit him protect late in games number seven. The bullpen leading up to Papelbon still Sox. Which is an interesting thought after Okajima and Delcarmen both go clean inning to -- the -- and just -- you put this couple weeks ago but not that takes Kelley number eight. The latest chapter of the -- saga is amazing is Peter King actually Peter far. Sounds dirty and -- of our public. Those newfangled swear words that I bought an uncomfortable to read Peter King right about -- art it's like a barber shot interviewing Jordan or Jim gray interviewing Colby. Number nine. I have a feeling juniors Al and dialog will replace the dated October 1 if you look at that feeling just. He thought number time -- actually be not a hundred. Fate if you bet that we get through eleven deep thought number time for making. Gerard Mayo sees me fitting right in with the first unit and how would you know since I've continued -- that once in the paper its expedited effort. Deep thought number eleven from it he -- in let me get this -- dot dot -- Openers gets pulled over in Vegas at 3:30 AM he passes to field sobriety test and abrupt -- Dropped carpet takes a cap -- people are killing question mark which mark -- the ball -- the ball. How we know that -- got pulled over it -- mean I know that Wimbledon or 5 o'clock this morning apparently was in the news and notes. Section of the globe ad in the paper. And people can openers don't even know about the captain. No -- getting optimistic. All right so that's a page of deep thought eleven album. Which US start with -- without the story. It's. Still -- all. It's Manny Ramirez asked the comeback the -- accept the trade and cool. Well you know. Is that story yet but if you look -- you also -- horse is rebuttal of that let me just back it was report in the globe was that Friday or Saturday. It was after we rob yeah it was Saturday jokers Saturday the globe reports. That in -- after the trade deadline 5 o'clock on Thursday Scott Boras calls the Red Sox back and that's calm. -- if you guys agree to not pick up these options like the Dodgers now if you agree that you'll pick them up and let him become an unrestricted free agent after the season. Well next the trade and we'll come back and he promised to play hard every day in and be a good teammate and help you window. And it's accent no thanks now Boris has subsequently denied it. Note the truth -- Note though we don't Scott -- adamant. And you can immediately jumped to the while he's an agent you Scott Boris of course he's going to. -- who -- You know it's -- Gordon he's obviously has his source so I two BRC a door that I don't to have via. Who was right who was wrong. Forget the timing forget you know tumbled dramatic good sports calls back an hour after the -- and -- and report all over the place at eagle much seems a little unlikely yes but forget the time -- say. -- bores -- that offer at 3 o'clock on Thursday before the trade it would seem odd that he wouldn't have made 3 o'clock. On the we talked about all day on Friday if yeah at all I don't blame the Red Sox for not picking up the option early in the season they learned a lesson with Pedro and that smart business not to and ideally in all. That's the way I think you want to go about business but when it reached the point that it did with Manning -- all why would have that have been entertained because that's braces. And that's still the best. That's still give the Red Sox the best chance when attempt to but Manny showing up producing hitting in the old outline."

[6:30]" Shore course it does well you know it does that are on the basis of how is no quite the White Sox consider that more strong regardless of the time. If if they they came to Ahmanson okay you know world what are just -- right you'll pick up your option next year the show up. Because they want him around. It's -- the priority here with with cut and dry. Not not to get the most value because we've settle on Tuesday that most value for Manny Ramirez would probably have come at the end of the year. The priority was to get him out of -- bad business or shortsighted no because it would you. In business you have to make priorities that you have to do what is the most important thing your rise in the most important thing was to get about it now. And yet at least decent value for which he did. Jason -- a good players knocked overboard NC today because he had a good weekend. He's a good player and -- to win the World Series because of the dynamic they could be capsule right I've said all along. You can only judge -- straight in one respect and that is wins and losses that's. -- that it that well."

[7:41]" Interest in week out worked up about teams Jason Bay over the weekend. For eleven hits a home run three RBI had a key triple in his first game at that we scored six runs over the weekend Sox sweep Oakland. Meanwhile in Los Angeles as a pretty good weekend right now bad. That a record go there but the lord a long hard -- Ramirez. -- Los Angeles eight of thirteen. Two home runs five RBI yesterday he goes for five with a home run and three RBI Dodgers went to -- the last eight."

[8:13]" You don't like hours until this. This could be very good trade for the Red Sox again league want to win the World Series -- right thing. But in terms of looking at the what you got back from what you gave up. This could be one of the best out for the -- unbelievable I mean you'll get you look at -- gave up. Two players one with a guy who if you vote it a minor league pitcher who -- he doesn't have. In eagle on the Internet these guys highlight click onto the profile this I didn't even have a profile. I eat so that that's -- prospect he has that you have a guy like LaRoche who is a good player but wasn't going to play with a Dodgers. And they yet they get the contract pay for the rest here and it."

[8:56]" X zero money out of their pocket your players who -- can be big factors for them. And to -- which makes -- the the year all for the best right handed hitters and cool down -- and oh by the way it's pretty motivated. We said as well on and so here's my point yes you could just as motivated here. And and and did that obviously the Red Sox want it -- matter why it was about getting value Packers just about getting him out of here yet and my whole point on Friday and I still haven't come off it is that. Sure today. The looked a little harder at history. When that right now not opinion it's back a long breaks it more often than not in the past when Manny Ramirez is at his things. Whether that's. I sit out strike whether it's affordable bony injury whether it's a real injury or what ever his thing it is more often than not not every time. Like 6 when he shouted down but more often than not. He's come back he's at in the team as one that's been the track record well."

[9:56]" Through things is. I I agree with a track record. But this had gotten to a point unlike any of those other times that you want to reference in this track record. There were that this was was was above and beyond any of the other things that you did dealt with."

[10:11]" on that I say it feels like it was worse but not different on the same line he just took a little bit farther. Well I think a big part of it he's got out gains before David talked him into playing before I remember Allard had a block to the batting cage in Philadelphia and -- right his --"

[10:26]" I had no idea -- I -- on top of the of the day which is the other times you would deal with this -- would be sitting in the back the clock about. The media with the okay we understand we can't talk to Manny but many -- had become the focal point of the clubhouse before and after every game. Every time the past pass the TV the club about every one with a low as you -- ESPN crawl. So. I think that affected it more -- because he was out there he was stocking it was different and that is that it was affecting the other guys as well. So listen I mean I -- in terms of the trading talent for talent Andy and I IE. Item on the side of the mirror marriage is a great hitter and you want to have him in the middle line."

[11:14]" Rob I only go back to one thing. That is the history of the track record of coming back right hitting and most importantly. The team winning being part of the Formula One champ like at Houston on the most important thing again. It's winning. And so far it's worked out are they get this too. To me to me is this 2004. All over again. For the simple fact is that when that was trade was made it was the same sort of reaction now they got a lot more street -- right now is no question about it. But with that trade was made St. -- thank -- for talent doesn't match up but. What you get in terms of the club out. And the bottom line answer that -- tell the talent to match up Nomar wasn't the same play about well Uga. What you -- that could be like this little Cabrera had a pretty good second half but he's pretty good player. Sure but at that point no and I got I was no crystal star status -- okay. Any of defense replacement at first baseman short of the treatments okay whatever but the bottom line go back to is it. Did they win it and anyway they won it that's so that made the trade get -- this weekend. A little bit not that much. Leave the hell cause the dot com and all of a sudden a little bit out about it a little bit -- need to decompress -- we're -- what -- a little diving had perfect go to Byrd. I get for. I doctor aren't going to president -- a little bit means but. I took I dropped off the books for Michael aside right now what got caught up. It's obvious. That the club was a little that not help that you're playing the open days arm but. You could tell there was that short term immediate little blue store. Clearing up the R or whatever you want to call it over the tangible effect on the team there's no doubt."

[13:07]" But you don't want that first gave. If they don't win that game and they score one -- there -- This problem all of a sudden all wall it would go and -- rods Baylor Bears and throw it Aaron but it didn't happen Jason Bay came through he showed what type of play areas would -- him and there are certainly. This certainly is a sense of relief the next clubhouse right now right or wrong but. That's because liberal but that's a relief for one weekend and they wouldn't do what we give well worth the games. Doesn't mean this is going to carry over through holes -- this still back at Tampa they have to win games the bullpen happy. Or at which point witness. Everett Everett which one of these stubborn and the bullpen at least we have the Pavel blood cells -- well it doesn't actually but. I have to keep going this way. And Abby all of these these the more important thing is that Neitzel story that we can talk about get through from -- maybe six day. By day you know they get a win games what it's like your boy bat cleanup. Was at the call like that was all cleanup. And up well if you really want to know via the page 335. Find out -- to give it short pants. -- wall first while he he hit he would very well cleanup last year when -- I think that has a big part of it that. When he was doing it he fell comfortably actually went to carry Franco last year and asked to hit cleanup. So he. I think that's the big thing is becoming awful last year success from last year he feels comfortable there. They ego and and you look at Dave Ortiz is numbers in the number three hole and they're dramatically better."

[14:51]" Well here's what -- I think people over right now I think a -- rated R person not well. The -- the three hole Ortiz -- numbers and comfort level is getting in front of Manny Ramirez in many hits seventh and David hit six. David would feel comfortable in the six hole. And and here's a little snapshot. It's just -- little. Here's a little -- maybe what you -- a little slip -- platter let me I -- numbers of pay over the weekend Manny over the weekend David Ortiz over the weekend without."

[15:19]" a -- a look at one of ten or walks an RBI -- you -- a little flat snapshot please last year when Mira mears was now on September. And Michael to clean up the rookies in over 39. So I go out as a snapshot. I've made those abs that are twelve -- a list you don't think that it doesn't matter -- impacts not just that four spot well I don't exactly it is going to be a fascinating parts this whole deal. Because this has been the side of like location maybe -- town you can find a replacement at the other side exit. The Ortiz Ramirez combination Ellis yet. As HIP. Yeah -- I know it's early. It looked at that point. Ortiz made -- combinations like no other in in baseball history at least compared to the greats and you can't replace him and it's -- feed off each other like nobody else. This -- or to respond to that it was a little snippy about the whole thing. -- get books might. That's the reporters say that's what does that that's what the reporting was on his -- at the end does that surprise you. -- just a few days before he said. Do you think you can win without me were Marist you need mirror Bears to win a world championship yes. So that's how it feels -- the."

[16:42]" Impact on the club over the weekend was obvious it was tangible that the clouds had cleared and -- and and and it helped them out but. I will just continue to say the long haul. In the long ball except again -- More often than not the past the storm clouds cleared with Manny here 2 did the team was able put it behind them and it was able to put it behind him and -- they were all it would go forward. And win and maybe. I mean they -- with. -- when my alarm was -- to bring Manny back they did it went alarm was not here to bring them back lol I think played a little bit of a role in some of those things I think the personal stilled air. For those music -- not have -- that's the thing that's the one thing -- never group is at what not have worked with Manny you're down the stretch. That's just not knowing -- well."

[17:28]" I will say beer and again I agree with a lot of what you're saying but beaten and being in that clubhouse on now last day. It at that point. There was certainly a feeling that okayed that we've reached a point that we haven't reached at any other time. Now you're right maybe that passes in a week at what it would take him maybe a little longer than it in in years."

[17:49]" Past but you if you when it doesn't matter. If they don't winning during this whole thing. It's not nearly -- blown opposite absolutely not -- if you know what if they cover if they keep me at this is stating the obvious maybe they -- bit. And in the -- that put deflected did. And made it stays in his corner of the world and start talking about wood the gold glove again be in Lackey gave birth."

[18:17]" The Red Sox got worse at this trade but that doesn't mean that they hurt themselves appoint what they can't win at all if they're starting pitchers pitch the way they are capable. Lester stays the same Beckett get his head out of his -- Matsuzaka throws more strikes and bought Colts taps into just. Some of that stuff that he's got. -- or or Wakefield stayed the same of the starting pitchers. Pitch the way they're capable and it find an eighth inning guy. They still have an off they have enough to win at all my opinion."

[18:48]" Oh sure bet you know in -- what we don't know is again it's. It easily while these guys make millions and millions of dollars in the shouldn't be so delicate is one situation like demeanor -- situation should affect them well you know what it does sometimes it does it effects. How people characterize a lot of guys Josh Beckett was saying it. Okay you know I work that we do is going to worry about -- like keep to myself I worry about what I have to do and every player would. They -- up for every player to be like that but that's not how every player hits. And that's that was clearly affecting the rest of the club out because not every player was like that."

[19:24]" What to understand it's affected him in the past. And they've gotten passed -- with I agree it it did not take them shipping out Manny. In all three oral five oral southern are all those years he came back in played great down the stretch. All -- not help brushed it off to use their expression before saw I had."

[19:41]" I avoid the -- with you but I do I would preface that by saying that. This is I think this was a little bit different I'm not saying they could've won. If Niedermayer stayed but this is a little bit different it's -- bay is as we're going to hear throughout the next. Few days because he had a good weekend Jason Bay is a good player he could play. And whether he's the right compliment that lineup over the long haul -- still yet to be seen I."

[20:08]" to a more pleased deep thoughts deep eleven thoughts it Jason Bay seems the only -- number two from -- is that true. He's got a that was that is a good right now departed. And he's got a direct it I mean it seems like he's our guy you are bigger Bears didn't have a good -- but it worked out pretty well a program best I have ever seen -- mirrors what not I always liked the Eagles are right penalties when it's clicking but. Jason Bay seems. You know he's out to about a play that Richie Sexson but I feel a I'd I'd feel a little --"

[20:42]" All -- big like I'm gonna that there is a lot of holes up about well about law. He'll -- I you know now. Though Berea Richie Sexson yeah he strikes out a little bit. By big tall lanky righty picked off he's drawing got a good arm lock bar outline. He's better than."

[21:02]" Richie Sexson. So as he said I -- to prowl being made to order that is is that canas is out -- hands out -- is out. Bags and -- last night we did John writer. In the up flash without ever met John I have never seen John -- that now you have I don't ghetto we like a nice to meet you YouTube that's why. All that put us on the year that's a broadcaster sounds. As opposed us -- Got a real broadcaster behind the glass."
