[0:00]" It is the fourth and final -- Dennis and Callahan in Boston three form Friday Steve Burton filling in for Jerry -- and as the Red Sox get -- to -- to Arizona to play the Diamondbacks in the three game weekends -- we've got to be a good -- the -- with the -- former assistant general manager of the Boston Red Sox now the boss man in Arizona Josh -- or Josh it's -- in Boston how -- The morning pay you clearly have one of the feel good stories in the national league this year and to say the old cliche -- let's build this team with pitching and defense that's essentially is what's getting it done for you guys a new way to 36 wins so far fair to --"

[0:40]" Yeah our -- it's been very good at. -- to be very get in this division -- with the partners and Dodgers and giants a lot of low scoring games in. And really two continue to cliche we were very home era and for most the year statistics in our players our original not back so it's been a good start or."

[0:57]" Doing your team is very young do they not know what they don't know yet Josh."

[1:03]" You know I think in -- it against Jake Peavy has and it Christian in and an. And that is so successful or not it should -- former triple a last year and you know it's hard you know before turco want for warning and I think that they don't -- adversity and and they battled through it."

[1:21]" Last night's loss notwithstanding you guys were 11 and one with a starting rotation combined ERA of one point 72 that's that's better than good. Are they surprising -- their performance."

[1:34]" A little bit I think that's been the key to -- Internet that you know has the experience -- it was brown however Randy Johnson if you guys want cy young's job so far it has been a World Series MVP is Doug Davis. That's quietly been very consistent pitcher last four years so -- four guys started opening day for the respective teams last year. And that that's where it was bad about every day we've just been checked swings -- starting pitcher does his job."

[2:00]" They justice talk around here obviously you probably saw curt Schilling's performance yesterday or at least the you know the ninth inning in. You know he's done extremely well -- six into the Red Sox did not make him a contract offer at the beginning of the year in Schilling was upset over that. If you are they feel back -- Boston would you have done the same thing or do you think they've done the right thing by just waiting."

[2:21]" Well you know it it's it's it's tough situation that sometimes you want to let things play out last year we Luis Gonzales and and that was our steps this year we have. Free agents Allard and harper Tony Clark were big parts of parts. It whether it's the Red Sox payroll or artists go her. You know it is sometimes that you are risk -- suitable sites after an advantage emotionally it did you want to sign him because this is history there and because there's financial or."

[2:56]" Would you go to him midway through the season. He's six and two now Theo said they want to take a vacancy only does would you at this point go to -- the all star break it off from a contract."

[3:07]" Well you know I think both sides strong position -- is still very good pitcher -- they're great rotation and Eric -- Lester clay buchholz coming up so -- successful trail -- out of the particulars of the negotiations."

[3:21]" We're talking with Diamondbacks general manager Josh Byrnes and -- your manager said prior to yesterday when asked about not seeing Schilling in Arizona this weekend at any time you miss a good pitcher you're not going to lose any sleep over that I guess it was almost oppression based on that performance last night by -- there they're still saw the left in the old horses there."

[3:41]" Yeah has. And you know these guys so can get undressed -- it has -- pragmatic wreckage out our division and missed or something or to ever had -- think has very mature precious career right. What -- York 34 I can ever choose to use it felt like yet. It pushed out of there are so I think that a lot of pride that -- careers wrecked."

[4:05]" Hey Josh as usual valuations for players that you're considering bringing in your organization is there an evaluation factor missing from what you have to do in Arizona that is included in Boston and by that I mean. My guess is that a little more high pressure to play at Fenway Park that it would be in Arizona. Do you spend less time worrying about how a guy it will react in the white hot spot light of Arizona versus the white hot spotlight in Boston if you get my drift."

[4:32]" Yet no doubt about it that's what something's very deep threats dachshund and or first got there like Dave Turkey's caramel our particular were targeted solely personality lies that they can drive in Boston. And an -- it's not as difficult to play I think that's given us the ability to break and a very European even though. Our market is used to all the teams and successful teams earlier this franchise history so it's been a bit of a shot here but a young players struggling at a lot released here on out."

[5:04]" It if you're in Boston and making that evaluation technically how do you go about determining whether a guy. You know has the sea legs to withstand Boston is is -- a formula figure that out"

[5:15]" even go back that first offseason you know dealt with Mike Timlin don't know where it. How much street personality profile -- but I think it's it's not seek two who have dealt at first that he didn't -- strength just as things -- going well sometimes her extrovert so to answer introvert but. We just play -- were pretty rigorous and posture figure out -- the right worst."

[5:37]" Based not just how surprising was it to you their directory had collapsed here it seems under the spotlight."

[5:44]" It was you know we we know he was quiet and then -- such successful player and play great Florida saint Louis. You know we are well protected -- defending champions in he just an advocate here at -- continue to play hard even though physically it was -- best but you know looking back at I think I was surprised we we really wanted to Evans and obviously. Shot -- it still play."

[6:11]" Josh is your is your style a compilation of all the people you worked with or is there one person who was more of inspiration for lack of a better word that that you have taken your style from."

[6:22]" I think everyone you know I've I've been around so current and and former -- the -- heart and a march power detest of course the domestic. You know I feel it. It sort of I have my greatest growth periods -- His jobs the most demanding -- weather outside is very difficult they keep. You have a tremendously well and the guy who's opposite current policy at its fair. And makes good decisions but the heroes is not afraid that that's important jobs."

[6:54]" just ask the question that I asked Jim -- a couple of weeks ago when he was in town and that is when he went to the Detroit Tigers and sat down -- clubhouse meeting in spring training what was the immutable rule that Jim Leyland had for his organization in terms of how he wanted things done when you became the general manager in October of 2005 and you -- of people for the first time. What was the immutable Josh Byrnes -- you one of them understand."

[7:20]" Well you know I think I like these terrorists and a decision making process but not not our focus too much but I think it was. Mystery vesting what we need to do is organization -- of business plan is the baseball planned of course took a lot to her contract -- totally different way of doing business in the past but what what I looked -- really -- foundation young players. We attitude to do everything that the Serbs have long term to support to it advocate for these young players spend money wisely and internal I was -- change."

[7:55]" They just as a GM is clear fehr does this come with the territory of of taken a chance on a guy that turns out to be a boss."

[8:04]" Yeah haven't we we absolutely -- the last two lawsuit that investors spent two billion dollars creations we spent zero. And you know we've we really want to pick up Eric Byrnes after it out here -- really at all -- honor and as Davis great outs were sort of coming off to a low periods so. I think we have -- that we have to buy low end and we have to believe our young players that's that's you know we make work on the."

[8:35]" Josh is -- human nature aspect the cubs and haven't all the money in the world to spend versus not having very much where your margin -- obviously it is much smaller than a Yankee payroll or Red Sox payroll I guess I'm asking is are you more likely to take a chance and spend and foolishly. When you got a 180 million dollars in your pocket verses 60."

[8:57]" Maybe you know I think. -- a suck art -- it ought to threats but threats such Yankees there's always gamesmanship of those two teams are competing for a player whether trade or free agency and they're trying to -- trying to drop a prize or the other."

[9:16]" How do you not get caught up the net"

[9:19]" I don't battle but it or. At some plays its its very healthy it in some ways that it it is going to help people I think that's part reps are competing at it that's the history of being a player office personal threats so I think that's just strips the fact is that your you're trying to --"

[9:40]" We've fascinated at all -- over how they got they picked up Daisuke."

[9:45]" I was -- and we we. It would put a bit ourselves council over short you know -- We we thought it was trip to answer -- then you know I think. Like to -- expected the market to -- like it did -- averaged a lot last there were very wise sure that."

[10:05]" It just my guess is if you want the general manager of the Diamondbacks you still might buy a ticket to see Sunday's game. -- versus Randy Johnson. "

[10:14]" I think degrade and you know hopefully will be if we get locally all the crowd extra. I already had a big night the other parties -- task audience so -- for second time are slick play assault on a strikeout list and you know the crowd certainly excited you're regret -- covenant house certainly -- you know."

[10:34]" Having seen RJ up close now I heard -- do a statistical analysis -- that you could -- a very good case statistically longevity aside the Randy Johnson is a better pitcher than than Roger Clemens how would you rank Randy Johnson Roger Clemens and any -- any of the other great ones in some sort of border in the top five."

[10:53]" Well it's funny you know I worked in Cleveland -- nine -- announced it -- at my -- years and it's I was sentence on our front office that. So we faced Clemens and Pedro or Randy Johnson. You know often times in the play out -- law I'm an. And that's me that ray Johnson torture our hearts that anymore and you know we -- repeat of Cleveland 1995 to go to the World Series but. You know I think at his very best. He was he was on a -- a good offense that doubt -- they score a lot of runs against."

[11:28]" John crux got a funny take underneath that I think Roger Clemens -- show was the better pitcher he is but I'm positive I could never get hit off Randy Johnson. "

[11:36]" Yeah yeah sort of dictator credit their children we -- a lot of we just couldn't couldn't do much against him but it's you know -- is special because you know a lot of the success startled that later. You know late twice hitting those birdies but no doubt on the best stretches ministry can't starting and about --"

[11:57]" It just final question before -- go since we don't get to see very much of your Arizona Diamondbacks give us the name of somebody to kind of glom onto this weekend as we watch here from Boston somebody will like watch playing baseball for you."

[12:10]" Probably -- he was -- draft pick traded for two winters ago oysters though there's a particular chance to -- Sorry third -- player -- in this year's -- The two game winning homers force this week in and just a great kid it was a big smile and the comparisons. Eric it is my care rep -- else that's a player power speed type player and start figured out."

[12:36]" Is -- about -- 36251 game out of first place behind the Padres Josh continued success not an Arizona let's talk and give -- more just got this weekend at all. -- just aren't with Dennis and --"
