-- -- What's going on I assume -- their Saturday for the no hitter. Com how great was it to to watch hidden in do we think in all lying who's going to go away. Now army she never stood Albuquerque -- look -- cannot better do you respond that is by the loss from the irregulars you can give -- a long time and is -- really special performance but than again that the park or forget -- How is that now watching the game with some guys -- the it was coming -- are -- with a guy though whether the pitch count would have had anything to do with -- -- Clay continuing their game into the nine what's as a general manager award and and that's I know it's Terry Francona it's called a what what do you think it happens in a situation like that. Well that the this if this is the Kennedy then stretched out op or and you know have at. -- hundred 150 pitches. Earlier in the year that it wouldn't be any problem you know leaving amendment extending him so -- one -- beyond that there are not there but in this case because. You know he used to take. All players in the players' lockers eat eat when really it captured so -- years ago he played in junior college he wasn't the intention you know full season major college baseball. Well here is on the DL briefly. -- an oblique problems limited is the entire season last year 226 and he didn't. Go beyond which is the -- again this year that he pitches you can't take it it is not stretched out. -- -- pitches all such 445 and expect them to help. I stay healthy but it's it's unnecessary risks you know we order. Hoping that kept them now editor -- there'd be some efficient how things play in the game that would keep to its happened. -- -- email from Keith asking about the decision to send him to the bullpen and does that make him this is the email from key does that make him trade dates -- in other socks inside but I heard. -- is is it are you keeping him on the active roster says so he's available during the playoffs to be starter. The reason he's gonna football this is because he's -- -- things again this. It's the same reason he can't -- -- -- there aren't it is problem for 130. Without raping a -- he can't take it is never mr. 126 but here -- 190 this year hope that it fit healthy. You know proven that. You don't want -- also -- and you know 30 days is that the most with a with a picture at this stage yes it happened we're keep on top there the starters he's looked you over about ten days. And then he would build up close down stretch of -- close race but a lot of October so. I think it's that we're donors were basically creating they're role where he's. Wanted to structured bullpen role we're gonna get on your last. It's gonna be is -- started in debt but where is you know clean and knowledge in the -- certainly else it's going to be out of apparent. So we keep letting down -- still impact the team and you know street I think -- luck -- -- -- -- is the first time they're -- more than five months in the life. And we'll see what he looks like you know the six months the word 48 -- here contemplate garnered just. Theo Epstein is our guest on the Hill Man Morning Show this is an email from -- Josh Nashua, New Hampshire please ask the oh what the possibility Jacoby -- remake in the playoff roster is inquiring minds want to know while determined yet you know all along -- of that we're going to ask somebody compete -- -- outfield defense you can has drawn basically so did Robert fall we always look to have that happen poses a roster. You know we're not communities anybody that you can -- opportunity together the second leading go -- -- epic. All along we felt surprised we're able to address to their internal.

Would would we end up seeing -- -- more in that particular position Japan to best way to get 4000 players to keep on -- out there and they're so important so I'll work first keyboard -- help you out killers before you can that an issue and then. You know throughout various -- you know and having -- struggle has their -- about the and that did nothing wrong and he's given here really good players we're very excited -- -- of from first time we let out I was an amateur but. This isn't true yes you know he's not you know 41 he -- really good clarity in fact it's even Ottawa. And we will -- better perspective those losses over a longer period of time before even. For making accurate just pops up and to get let's Soviet that you impacted game. It'll definitely is and doesn't need to be plenary -- -- -- career to think it's in better. Well without picking on a very specifically what what would you be comfortable as the general manager -- -- is J. D. Drew its current output for the it for the rest of the season. Blot not be alot more comfortable -- output that's. It under the wouldn't start for his entire career. And you know that's why you brought here that's what you're gonna get over the land that the contract is obviously having abound here. But you know the only way to get that performance but that. Can answer this career should -- Nixon you know a lot of more productive our principal or baseball. -- defiance and you know if there's any any hope that are any indication that particular that the you gotta keep playing haven't. You know -- with the output that he's we've been there to have the best record in baseball that speaks first well. Now know enough there why what. If many comes back healthy JD Jews are producing you're not gonna play. Jacoby Salisbury in front of J. D. Drew what how how place doesn't work panic caught on the gavel because we want to set and so we can open the whole they'll come out of his own. How healthy. -- don't talking. -- it up now leave it. -- interview is going to be over. Leave it. The people who built the best team in baseball is an editor. The man -- -- in this spot yet our -- and it's only partly better context about players entire career both both very under every player on the team every player the nation's Jason. Every player to the -- physical -- -- every player a thousand years. And there -- -- point where he added in Iraq where there maybe you don't throw out there every single day and you have matchups -- You avoid -- you can. You can get them ordinaries that there can't sit at a particular picture but. It and you you have to understand. Concept Cooper's career and and and what our players is on the hot structure all structure beyond the year or year. So you know just leave it to. The manager -- -- about could if you were managing the team Mark felt or when the nest. The field in 2000 hard. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- that I held back as you know. He has he has got fired and so of course you are -- guards are fired so -- you know and does the skeptic like three outfield positions. Then once -- dollar. Internet what we are out there.
