" Welcome back to foxsports.com. Coverage of the 2009 World Series. We made her way from new York and Philadelphia right in the -- with Ken Rosenthal here at the work that day. Not a casual Friday and what happened you look at you are for making you look slot Christian I'm just that are team I can't help myself anymore and that day every day for Kenny. Not for me. Let's talk about the surprise that we had the first workout -- this priceless Pedro Martinez who are keen to set were cut and now we hear that you play our game four. Talked about the move by Charlie Manuel and how this will think Joe Girardi approach with his. First of all I like the move and I like a lot in fact I really much choice here. Cliff Lee has never in his entire career started on three days' rest 193. Of stories done on three days' rest. The other thing Cliff Lee has pitched a career high 265. Innings 33 -- third in the post season. Now I know there's been more off days but to me it would really pushing your luck. For the Phillies to start him even if -- the series because I'd rather have him on normal rest in game five which is now with the plan will be. Plus the possibility of him coming out of the bullpen in game seven. Charlie Manuel showed a lot of faith in his players he's showing faith in Joe Blanton here now the Yankees the situation is a little bit different. They don't have the rotation depth -- the Phillies. Don't really have a fourth starter. The leading guy would be Chad Gaudin and I'd be surprised if they put -- good days in game four in the World Series. When he against only one like the last month. So I would expect easy to pitch on three days' rest. The problem is that you have to pitch AJ Burnett on three days' rest in him on three days' rest and easy to three which is the idea in the first place. I'm not so sure that's the great. Solution either so. The wheels -- for both edges. The total plays out we suck it and threw a simulated game at Yankee Stadium not the same here Cole Hamels will start game three for the Phillies. Workable that's for you it it's a moment is all about the pitcher starting pay that Jeter four for seven against Cole Hamels. Johnny -- three for five Melky Cabrera three for six to share a five for seventeen. This little bit of an advantage for the Yankees. Those that stretched and small sample sizes. Too scared of it it though is that however there are a lot of stats that make your argument. He hasn't completed six innings and -- three post seasons or he really hasn't been consistent at all this season. A little bit better home three point 75 ERA here four point 99 on the road. But the problem with Cole Hamels is that he just has been looking for himself the entire year. And hasn't found that except in rare instances. -- how he would pitch tomorrow. Put the -- I've no idea. Couple more call -- that A-Rod who for 44 -- we'll see how that plays out the next game we aren't than actually park the DH rule is gone. That being that I know not. Gonna be up until game five. He can handle -- he can handle the bat. Talk about maybe the pitchers from the yankees' handling that is -- really an advantage for the nationally team in the situation where Christian recruits -- easy game were still on three days' rest. He handle the -- he will they handle the bat he's always talked about our great theater is am sure he would be quite representative. But sure it's -- definite advantage for the National League team. The Yankees had this incredible quandary now about what to do with Hideki Matsui. Hideki Matsui has now played the outfield the entire season he's got bad me. Now when the Yankees coaches Robby Thompson was saying earlier today the issue is not whether -- play the outfield. Like riding a bicycle. The issue is whether he'll get hurt out there because those needs -- such an issue. But if you have -- line of tomorrow night yet -- and one quarter in which are Hairston in the other corner. Those guys is really much of an offensive force so the Yankees are definitely losing a back -- won't cost as we saw last game anyway yard. The Phillies their National League team but from the looks of them in the way they've been put together to -- like American League team I think. In some ways yes and ostensibly that's what generally people talk about when they talk about the Phillies having an American the type look. That's right by all the way through. Call or read the catcher and Pedro Feliz the third baseman not classic sluggers the Ruiz has had a good post season. Those American League identical one to nine deep with the DH. That's American League hardball right there with these guys do is pretty good and offensively one through six there are very. But I'm not sure put them in the category of some of those great American League conference. It a big weekend of box we kick things off with team three Saturday night. Can't be the rocket and have them afterwards be sure to check back with fox were not come for all the late World Series news for cam and Christian. --"

I'll talk about first timlin -- the biggest case of all the arbitration eligible players in 2010. The setup though in 2008 when Ryan Howard . That gave the Philadelphia Phillies . And 110 million dollar arbitration victory the biggest victory in history of arbitration . For first time eligible player. Tim Lincecum is soon gonna break that record once he goes into the boardroom what the club estimated they limited number of eight million dollars. The players -- number of thirteen million dollars. Now the arbitration panel of three when they're done here in the case we'll have to either pick eight million or thirteen million they can't pick a number in between. But it Ryan Howard . He went and it is award with -- MVP and a rookie of the year award. And he got ten million. Tim Lincecum is gonna walk into the room with two Cy Young awards. Our record of 4217. You walk is -- to award a record of 4217. I think he's gonna get paid more than Ryan Howard hit the San Francisco Giants are forced to walk into the arbitration room they have three alternatives. The first one is to settle the case in the Rome. If they can get a deal
we think he should be the highest paid pitcher ever -- arbitration . We agree this guys want to -- down so we agree his record of forty and seventeen is amazing. It's 676. Strikeouts as a star but then make it an industry case and try to argue the fact. That eight million dollars a year will be more than an. Any pictures ever made history of baseball the first time eligible and that that numbers more appropriate than another record which would be thirteen million dollars. A look at the arbitration records over the last five years the owners have won seventeen case that the players have won ten. Does that mean the clubs have won. No it doesn't the players have actually won because every year they win that one case. That changes the entire market for the next class the following year so even this year they lose all cases if they win the Tim Lincecum case. They really well one of arbitration . Because the bar will look instead at a new level for all future arbitration cases. -- the history of salary arbitration . It started in 1974. When Reggie Jackson broke the record in arbitration waited about a 135000. Dollars. Then in 2008 Ryan Howard get the ten million dollars award and in 2010. Might call that Tim Lincecum gonna win his case. At thirteen million dollars so we've gone from a 13501974. To thirteen million in 2010. That's arbitration process has worked for the players.
