" I'm Brian -- it's not it's not baseball for that we're pleased to be joined by fox sports dot -- senior baseball writer Ken Rosenthal can the Red Sox acquired pirates' first baseman erosion Chris Duncan of the Cardinals -- Sox gun dealer."

" No they're not necessarily done even after the is through trade. The Red Sox continue to scout Indians catcher Victor Martinez. And while -- still isn't like. The Red Sox parting with young pitching that the Indians so much want. You still have to wonder whether they have a big move left whether -- whether it's Roy about it or someone else. The Red Sox -- that philosophy is not to trade young players the older players guys thirties like howdy like Victor Martinez. They all or team that -- very aggressively. To address any deficiencies in the -- on their roster. Well right they have deficiencies in both the rotation due to injuries to wheat field. Aka. The of small and Brad Penny. Also had issues offensively. That's -- they acquired Adam LaRoche in the first place. Broached though is more of a complementary player. And the Red Sox truly want to make an impact in this deadline period. Go get victor -- outing. On one like either."

" The Yankees are playing out any baseball currently in first place in the AL east. Based on the recent play do you think they'll be active as we get closer to the trade --"

" I don't expect him to be active but I'd never trust them to be totally inactive. You go back a few years ago Johnny Damon created. Interest suddenly Johnny David with the Yankees. Go back the last went Arctic -- created Yankees not the picture slightly Mark Teixeira the Yankees. Obviously it's different in the trade market. General manager Brian Cashman has been pretty can this in not wanting to treat young talent and take on big hours in the same deal. That's why the Yankees not go after -- when he was available years back. Still you always wonder if the Yankees are looking for a guy like how to. What they're saying publicly is well right now will stick with Sergio MITRE is our hope that you want back. And if necessary use Alfredo sevens or Phil Hughes in the rotation. But doing that and as -- Hughes well that we in the bullpen. If the Yankees got out imagine. Sabathia Burnett and out. Low world."

" What -- in the east the rays are still in striking distance but can they make a splash by picking up a big name like -- how what they're Cliff Lee at the deadline."

" Well interestingly enough the rays seem to have nobody and get there on every major player who is available or close to it. Asked about Roy out after -- they asked about Victor Martinez. But the rays note that the chances of them acquiring any of those players is exceedingly slim. The reason for that is truthful. One as I mentioned the rays -- financial flexibility. Then to take on how bodies out it would be almost crippling to their payroll situation. To the rays are in a position as an organization. Where they can ever really trade young pitching on a consistent basis. Thirty traded Edwin Jackson and Jason Hammel -- in the last eight months. To trade a top prospect like we gave it any of these deals. You know like he would be required. Well that would be really difficult then to do so the rays are a lot of fun the following the deadline but they -- no action."

" Okay can we appreciate the -- I don't forget foxsports.com. Is your one stop shop for all your baseball needs for Ken Rosenthal I'm Bryan Webber will he next. Saturday -- Howard in the world."

" Motor city."

" Fox Saturday baseball presented by Pepsi this week for eastern 1 Pacific. Fox Saturday."
