" I'm Brian Webber's spotted dog baseball for that would please be joined by foxsports.com senior baseball writer Ken Rosenthal candy Cleveland Indians five manager. Eric Wedge will lessen the -- to go in the season why did memo now."
" That is they really good question. If fact I was talking with a couple of former players yesterday and they thought the timing with absolutely ridiculous. Basically the point being made is what is a player's supposed to think. When he's playing -- duck manager and no wind up coaching staff the final week of the season. I'm not really stories that -- deal. Let's face everyone knew Eric Wedge in trouble. Eric Wedge wanted -- early resolution. And frankly the way he put it he wanted to finish the job and so and his coaches. So while the timing certainly is. I don't know that it was going this rough or -- disrupt the Indians any more than they already were disrupted. After a miserable season. What matters beyond hot during the season. Well there are two managers who clearly on a hot team right now. Gave -- of the Baltimore Orioles. If -- wanted to keep him as manager beyond this season I would think they would already have said that. And yet they have not said a word about his status. An odd situation. Charlie can not be held responsible for the failings of this team in most competitive division in baseball. But for whatever reason in the Orioles are inclined to make it changed. Perhaps they have someone better in mind but as I've written -- as I said I'd like to know who that person it. I don't know that they've friendly is a great match. The trend and here but I don't know all those that he deserves his fate what appears to be likely fate here. Derailment of the nationals slightly different story. He's an interim manager and while the general manager Mike -- told me today that -- is a legitimate candidate for the job. It certainly would appear that the nationals need -- fresh approach someone from the outside. Couple of names to keep in mind would be some people that result worked with in Arizona. Not talking about Buck Showalter. Talk enough former Diamondbacks manager Bob Melvin and two of their current coaches chip hale and Kirk Gibson. You've heard a lot about Showalter a lot about Bobby Valentine possibly -- it DC. But I'll believe that after going to spend big money on a manager when I see it."
" Boston Red Sox are bumbling their way into the playoffs but second baseman Dustin Pedroia says he likes -- chances in the post season do you know. I'll give -- a better answer after this weekend. After we -- Lester pitches coming off the bruised quad. After we see how Beckett does coming up to three partial cortisone injections after we -- one more time. The Red Sox certainly have all the pieces and while they've lost six straight going into Thursday's play really not played very well at all. Look at what Terry Francona said last night when you have instead. They're not at all concerned because they know. That the way you're playing going into the post season hardly ever translates into the what you actually perform once the bright lights go on October. Different game entirely. The Cardinals Dodgers and the Phillies in the National League also were stumbling right now and none of those teams should be particularly worried either. Cake and we appreciate that opened up foxsports.com. Magic number for all your baseball needs throughout the World Series for Brian will. --"
