00:00at pitchers who are throwing tantrums like five-year-olds when they get yanked from a
00:05baseball game that's why his that's why they call him baby is that why is that yeah i think he's
00:12done this plenty of times but it doesn't look good for the baby i would say adios to baby pedro
00:19what's the loop what are you gonna lose like i just problem is you can't give him away right
00:24you know put him on irrevocable waiver see if anybody's dumb enough to pick him up and then
00:28he gets released like i just to me you need to start somewhere building a culture and that was
00:35pathetic and encapsulates everything about this team right now and it's not just one guy
00:43because i feel like jaron duran has been at it a bunch of times this season with fans yeah with
00:51the
00:51with the attitude and i feel like trevor's story maybe has an attitude thing going on so
00:58i don't know i don't know where it comes from i know one thing it's not a good thing for
01:05marcello
01:05meyer and for roman anthony and and whoever else is on that baseball team trying to figure out what's
01:12going on and it's just that there were the expectations so high on baby pedro especially
01:21from ken laird but but from from elsewhere and what a what what an epic disappointment he's been
01:27and so curtis i think you're right try and ship him out if you can i guess yeah and you
01:33know crochet to
01:33the dl il whatever they call it these days and that is good news to me because i know he
01:40pitched well in
01:41his last outing but the performances he had been uh delivering for the red sox were to me a sign
01:47that
01:47there's no way he was healthy because if he's garrett crochet you don't allow 11 runs you don't
01:52you don't perform that way there's clearly something going on and i the decision by breslow
01:58to not hold any of his people accountable after firing alex cora is going to come back to bite him
02:03it was so important that i repeated the exact question about andrew bailey that mega would ask
02:08in the sam kennedy interview and to me you can't that's another example of not being accountable
02:13well yeah the athletic we touched on it yesterday did a great deep dive into how long craig breslow
02:20has been deciding to move on from these coaches and basically blow up the staff from anyone who
02:25was there before he was there okay and they wrote this just really quickly they said entering this
02:32season every member of the red sox major league pitching department pitching coach andrew bailey bullpen
02:37coach chris holt and major league pitching strategist devon rose was either hired
02:42or promoted by breslow and all of them kept their jobs and what i don't get here is you fire
02:50all of
02:51the hitting coaches which you can look at and say yeah their offense sucks overall this year but they
02:56didn't give any roster support to the offense really they gave all the support in the world to
03:01pitching but everybody on the pitching staff gets to stay because they were all hired or promoted by
03:07breslow yeah to me that is zero accountability it's totally illogical and i don't know how if
03:14your ownership you look at it and you say i'm buying into what breslow is doing because the one point
03:18that
03:18he put an emphasis on since he's come here has not been a success no the athletic also reporting in
03:25that
03:25same story that on black friday almost a week ago the intention and and they carried through with it i
03:33guess
03:34was to just fire or reassign jason veritek okay and alex cora i guess and the rest of the staff
03:43give
03:43him give him credit for it weren't having that and we're basically like and they they get the quotes
03:50in the athletic we're basically like f off uh you want to fire one you fire all of right which
03:57is
03:57foxhole guys it's why it's wild to me that that you understand why jason veritek was was not interested
04:05in reassignment and why he was thumbs down yeah and the private jet picture yep um because that was
04:11there that was how brezbot was going to fix everything is firing jason veritek so um it's very
04:19belichickian the way breslow has been operating remember how belichick really was supportive of the
04:24defense he would draft defensive players he spent more money in free agency on defensive players
04:29and at the end it was because he and mac were like breslow and cora and to me this there's
04:35a story
04:36today uh it's the the first which will be perceived as the smear campaign in the boston globe alex spear
04:43has a column why alex i mean alex spear has a column why alex cora was fired not very meaty
04:50but uh two
04:51interesting things nowhere in the story does alex spear write that john henry owns the paper that
04:56he's writing it in which to me is really poor journalistic um that's just the again i don't
05:03know how you avoid conflict of interest i mean i love the boston globe everybody's wrong but them
05:09except for when it comes to actual journalistic standards but uh it's basically about breslow and
05:13cora having a severe strain in their relationship it surrounds andrew bailey and how there were
05:22pitchers that didn't get along with him breslow and bailey are incredibly close and to me it's an
05:29off season where if you're going to preach run prevention and you're going to want to support
05:36andrew bailey however you can you give suarez 130 million not alex bragman who we've learned
05:41didn't get along with um or got really liked fatsy the hitting coach said it was one of the best
05:47hitting coaches he'd ever been around so to me maybe that's why maybe it wasn't a trade um clause
05:53it was that breslow said i'm not going to have this guy here who's going to demand a hitting coach
05:57i
05:57think sucks the red socks dropped the ball and this one is when they fired heim bloom uh a couple
06:04years ago they probably should have just moved on from alex cora the bottom line is you can't bring in
06:09a new gm who's not bringing in his own guy and there's already a guy in place and that guy
06:14in
06:14place is a lovable character people love him he's kind of been embedded into the organization
06:21and he has a different philosophy than the new gm it's not going to work i don't know why owners
06:29don't realize that like i mean that's like you know the first thing you learn and owning a team
06:37in class 101 is that when you have a gm or a head coach and they're not tied at the
06:44hip
06:44it's not going to work well it's a mess over there red socks lose
