>> BACK HERE JASTREMSKI WITH YOU
ON THE FAN.
WE WILL TURN OUR ATTENTION TO
THE WORLD OF MAJOR LEAGUE
BASEBALL.
WITH A LITTLE OVER SIX WEEKS TO
GO HERE IN THE REGULAR SEASON IT
IS PRETTY MUCH A FOR MALLITY
THAT THE NEW YORK YANKEES WILL
BE BACK IN THE POSTSEASON FOR
THE 16th TIME IN 17 YEARS.
NOW LISTEN, THE YANKEES DON'T
NEED TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT CC
SABATHIA.
THEY DON'T NEED TO BE CONCERNED
ABOUT MARIANO RIVERA.
BUT OVER THE NEXT FIVE TO SIX
WEEKS THE THANKEES NEED TO
FIGURE OUT WHO IS GOING TO BE
GETTING THE STARTS IN GAMES TWO,
THREE AND FOUR OF THE AMERICAN
LEAGUE DIVISION SERIES.
AND THERE ARE A LOT OF NAMES OUT
THERE.
THERE ARE A LOT OF GUYS WHO HAVE
PITCHED BETTER THAN ANYONE COULD
HAVE POSSIBLY HOPED FOR.
IVAN NOVA, FREDDY GARCIA HAS
BEEN BRILLIANT.
BARTOLO COLON HAS BEEN
BRILLIANT.
ONE NAME I DON'T WANT TO SEE
THIS GUY MY WHERE NEAR THE
POSTSEASON ROTATION AND THAT IS
A.J. BURNETT.
A.J. BURNETT HAS BEEN AN
ABSOLUTE TRAIN WRECK THE LAST
TWO YEARS AS MEMBER OF THE
NEW YORK YANKEES.
EVERYONE LIKES TO TALK ABOUT HIS
STUFF AND HOW TALENTED THE GUY
MAY BE.
BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY HE IS
A SUB-500 PITCHER ON A 95 WIN
TEAM LAST YEAR, 95 WIN TEAM YET
AGAIN THIS YEAR.
HE HAS ALWAYS SHOWN TH
AND PROPEN
A BIG SPOT.
IF YOU WANT AN EXAMPLE, LOOK NO
FURTHER THAN LAST YEAR.
AMERICAN LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP
SERIES SEASON ON THE LINE,
YANKEES DOWN TWO GAMES TO ONE,
HE HAS A LEAD AGAINST TOMMY
HUNTER AND GOES OUT AND SPITS
THE BIT AND BLOWS THE GAME AND
ENDS THEIR HOPES IN 201 1.
IF THE YANKEES WANT TO BE
ANYWHERE COME THIS POSTSEASON,
THEY WILL STAY FAR FAR AWAY FROM
STARTING BURNETT.
LAST YEAR THEY DIDN'T HAVE ANY
OTHER BETTER OPTIONS.
I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY HE GOT THE
START IN GAME NUMBER 4.
THIS YEAR THE YANKEES HAVE
BETTER OPTIONS IN THE
POSTSEASON.
LOOK AT WHAT IVAN NOVA HAS BEEN
ABLE TO DO, FANTASTIC.
COLON AND GARCIA FIND WAYS TO
GET IT DONE.
THEY HAVE THE MENTAL TOUGHNESS.
THEY CAN GRIND THEIR WAY THROUGH
THE GAME I DON'T FEEL THAT WAY
ABOUT A.J. BURNETT.
THOUGH HE HAS A MILLION DOLLAR
ARM HE HAS A FIVE CENT HEAD.
BACK AFTER THIS.
>> ALL RIGHT, JOHN JASTREMSKI.
>> GOOD JOB, JOHN.
>> OMAR, START US OFF.
>> WHOA!
I TELL YOU WHAT -- LET OMAR
CRITIQUE.
>> LET ME CRITIQUE.
LET OMAR CRITIQUE.
>> I WANT TO CRITIQUE A COUPLE
OF THINGS.
THE BASEBALL SIDE WHEN YOU WERE
TALKING TO ROBERTSON.
IT WAS GREAT.
I THOUGHT YOU WERE ASKING
QUESTIONS REALLY BEING IN THE
BULLPEN FINDING OUT ABOUT THE
BULLPEN AND WHAT YOU ASK HIM
WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNED FROM
MARIANO RIVERA, THAT WAS GREAT.
YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT A GUY WHO
IS GOING GOOD BUT WILL BE THE
FUTURE AND THE AREAS OF -- THAT
YOU KNOW ROBERTSON CAN GIVE YOU
A FEEL FOR WHAT GOES ON IN THE
BULLPEN I ALSO FEEL THAT YOUR
QUESTIONS TO HIM AS FAR AS
TALKING ABOUT THE PERSONAL SIDE.
AS FAR AS HIS CHARITY, WHAT HE
IS DOING AND NOT ONLY THAT, I
THOUGHT YOU FINISHED IT OFF
GREAT BY GOING BACK AND SAY GIVE
INFORMATION TO THE LISTENER ON
HOW THEY CAN CONTRIBUTE.
I THOUGHT THAT WAS GREAT.
I THOUGHT YOU KIND OF
REINTRODUCED HIM A COUPLE OF
TIMES THAT WAS PERFECT.
I THOUGHT YOU DID A GOOD JOB
WITH THAT.
ON THE BASEBALL SIDE WHERE YOU
FINISHED, A STRONG FINISH AND I
SAY THIS BECAUSE YOU KNOW YOU
MADE YOUR POINT AND YOU ARE
PASSIONATE ABOUT HOW YOU FEEL
ABOUT A.J. BURNETT AND I
UNDERSTAND THAT.
BUT JUST MAKE SURE THAT IF YOU
ARE GOING TO BE DOING THAT ARE
YOU GOING INTO THAT CLUBHOUSE
SOMETIMES AND THAT IS PART OF
BEING ON RADIO.
THAT BEING SAID IT IS YOUR
OPINION.
NOW YOUR OPINION IS BASED ON
FACTS.
BASED UPON WHAT HAPPENED IN THE
PAST COUPLE OF YEARS.
AND I THINK AS A FAN YOU LIKE TO
HEAR THAT.
ONE THING THAT I THOUGHT YOU DID
GOOD, YOU WERE PRETTY CLEAR.
I CAN SEE YOU HAVE DONE RADIO
BEFORE SO I THINK YOU DID A VERY
GOOD JOB.
YOUR OPINION IS AN OPINION BUT
AS A GENERAL MANAGER I DON'T
LIKE PLAYERS BEING TALKED ABOUT
LIKE THAT.
BUT THAT IS JUST MYSELF.
AND THAT IS WHAT YOU GET PAID
FOR WHEN YOU GET THE MIKE AND
THAT IS WHAT YOU DO.
SO YOU DID A GOOD JOB.
INTO THANK YOU.
>> GOOD JOB OMAR.
OMAR AND I HAD A FEW OF THOSE
CONVERSATIONS OVER THE YEARS I
WOULD SAY.
I'M THINKING ABOUT MY MAN
CASHMAN TOO.
SO I GOOD GOVERNMENT TO PROTECT
MY MAN CASHMAN.
>> WE HAD A FEW THOUSAND OF
THOSE CONVERSATIONS.
>> ALL RIGHT, GREG GO AHEAD.
>> I'M GLAD YOU GO TO SLEEP IN
THE OVERNIGHTS DURING MY SHOW.
I APPRECIATE YOU LISTENING WHILE
YOU ARE SLEEPING.
YOU ARE A PUMPED MAN.
YOU HAD A TON OF ENERGY.
YOU BROUGHT IT.
YOU CAME OUT MORE THAN ANY OF
THE OTHER FOUR CONTESTANTS IN MY
OPINION AND BROUGHT IT.
YOUR CONVERSATION WITH ROBERTSON
WAS GREAT.
YOU WERE PASSIONATE ABOUT WHAT
HE WAS PASSIONATE ABOUT.
AND OMAR WAS SAYING YOU CAME
BACK TO THE CHARITY BECAUSE WHEN
IT IS ALL SAID AND DONE BASEBALL
IS A GAME AND THAT IS THE MOST
IMPORTANT THING AND GOING BACK
TO THAT WAS GREAT.
I THOUGHT YOUR RANT WAS RIGHT ON
THE MONEY.
I'M NOT IN THE CLUBHOUSE EVERY
DAY LIKE OMAR IS, SO I WOULD DO
WHAT YOU DID.
AND YOU DON'T LIKE A.J. BURNETT
AND YOU BROUGHT IT.
AND IT MADE SENSE.
AND EVERYTHING IN AND AROUND
YOUR ARGUMENT YOU BROUGHT IT
AROUND AND IT MADE SENSE.
AND THAT IS WHAT I LOVED ABOUT
IT.
I LOVED YOUR ENERGY AND PASSION.
AND I THOUGHT YOU DID A REALLY
GREAT JOB.
>> KIM?
>> I WAS GETTING WORRIED ABOUT
YOU BECAUSE YOU WERE IN THE
CABAN LOOKING AT THE LAPTOP.
>> I FELT LIKE THE GUY ON DRAFT
DAY AND EVERYBODY ELSE GOT
PICKED AND I WAS SITTING IN THE
CORNER.
I'M TELLING YOU YOU CAME OUT
BETTER THAN BRADY QUINN.
YOU HAD A LOT OF ENERGY.
WHICH I LOOKED FROM THE OUTSET.
THE INTERVIEW WITH DAVID
ROBERTSON SOMEONE I INTERVIEWED
MANY TIMES, YOU DID A TREMENDOUS
JOB.
I AGREE WITH OMAR A LITTLE BIT
ON THE RANT AND I GET IT.
I WOULD LOVE IT IF GUYS LIKE YOU
THOUGH WOULD DO A RANT LIKE THAT
AND THEN SHOW UP IN THE
CLUBHOUSE AND THAT WOULD BE A
CHALLENGE TO YOU AS YOU START
THIS PROFESSION.
BUT YOU DID A NICE JOB.
AND YOU DID SUCH A NICE JOB THAT
I'M GOING TO BE NIT-PICKY.
A COUPLE OF THINGS WITH
ROBERTSON.
YOU SAY TALK ABOUT THIS.
YOU ARE BETTER THAN THAT.
AND WE ALL DO IT.
I DO IT TOO.
BUT I THINK AFTERWARDS SHOULDN'T
HAVE DONE IT.
SO GIVE HIM A QUESTION OR IF YOU
TALK ABOUT ONCE OR TWICE, DON'T
GO BACK TO IT THAT THIRD OR
FOURTH TIME BUT THAT IS BEING
NIT-PICKY BECAUSE YOU DID A
REALLY NICE JOB.
>> THANK YOU GUYS.
WE WILL BRING THE JUDGES BACK.
WE WILL ASK THEM TO RANK
EVERYBODY AT 6:00.
SO GIVE US WHAT YOUR THOUGHTS
ARE.
WHO WAS THE BEST, WHO WAS THIS,
WHO WAS THAT.
WHEN I COME BACK.
I'M GOING TO BRING UP THE FIVE
