" However a lot I'm Randy Sparage tiger talk baseball and please be joined by the skipper Kevin Kennedy and skipped the Yankees are on a roll they just swept there arch rivals from Boston. But the Bronx bombers the best team in baseball right now."
" I think they aren't as Obama week and a half ago and seeing them now on -- they rod being back in the lineup that's one big B I think the other -- these. Is available now to get the ball Mario Rivera namely. Still he's he's really taken that role on 95 miles an hour fastball owners curbs on his slider. He's throwing everything in the eighth inning role and that makes it very difficult on the opposition in the line up. Forget about it one through nine everybody has double figures in home runs -- Cabrera the the most recent guy. It's an incredible lineup right now they're going to be very tough to be in the mystery series against the Boston Red Sox the fact that they welcome. -- a lot and couple final point who has been close to half a billion dollars on three key guys and all three guys have done the job he's about it AJ Burnett. And of course Mark Teixeira. While the other the Red Sox are currently battling the Rangers and -- that American League wild card who's going to win. Well in our cover the race obvious I want to raise. But all that. You know being dead and have a upon -- the rays have a very talented group they have a young core and I think because they're athletic they won't get tired here at the end of the season but. You know starting pitching hasn't quite been what it was last year and he gave it to -- have guys step up. It's come up a little bit flat you know move the raised by the Red Sox extremely well Larry for right now to speak against him but it seems like Seattle you have to be. The rays haven't played well in Anaheim so all that being what the what the Red Sox and Texas Rangers who I respect with the Raiders are doing. -- they've got some good young starting pitchers in Holland. Who's audited again needles and Tommy hotter. And -- led by Kevin Millwood the lineup -- good -- that much better but. I'm resume building this up the biggest I think it's the Boston Red Sox I know that edit stuff primary late even though John Smoltz is gone now. Wait they'll hopefully be coming back then soon they still have two key guys the top of the rotation and and Beckett and Lester I don't think the lineup is very very solid. I think the red sock reports also and I are going to find a way to sneak in their but I do to -- the Yankees and he's winning it in the Red Sox might sneak in a window to get that --"
" Finally White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen has issued a warning to the American League -- especially saying that if any of his players get hit with a pitch the the Sox will retaliate. As a former skipper how do you feel about all these comments."
" Well -- the upon mention it -- him I'm not too happy about that but now I'm covering it covering all thirty teams -- did entertain some times now Bosnia a statement and I know him. Well enough now hearing it from the first year as a manager to now that. Hey he's going to back up what he does but he's well he's doing their -- to motivate his own clubs they listen guys I have I have your back if we get -- intentional or not. We're going to go up in a knock somebody down I'm sure he's not going to try to hurt somebody but the other openings that MLB in the commercials -- like -- like those statements are not god he's that is. Hand slap before so many does get hit and so if they get hurt. It's going to cost them but I know what -- he's doing his promote his own guys and saying -- I had your back and and if anybody heard my guys not only one guy's going down they'll Don Drysdale -- you don't want to mine I'm going to get to -- I give thanks so much for being with us and don't forget foxsports.com.
