Hey, it's Rob Bradford here on Jones and Keith on W-E-E-I. He is presented by McFarland Energy.

Bradford, I want to keep you waiting. We want to get you right in. How's everything going?

Oh, it's great, man. It was Sunny Gray going to be your random baseball player of the day today?

Oh, not today. Spoiler alert. You mean pickles? We had to be him.

We had to punt on that.

We were just reading the latest from Brad Foe up now on WEEI.

You can follow him on Twitter at Bradfo.

Of course, baseball isn't boring.

I like this line in here from you, Rob.

The three-time All-Star is reliable.

And while Gray is a perceived top of the rotation option for the Red Sox, he wouldn't

seem to be the caliber of starting pitcher Craig Breslow was hinting at earlier this

offseason.

So what do you make of the trade?

I only deal in facts.

Those are facts.

Yeah.

First of all, you can't, I don't think you can really criticize the Red Sox

for the trade because it does what everybody wants them to do, which is try to win in

2006.

Like there is, that, that is undeniable when it comes to looking at this trade.

You took on, you know, a fair amount of money now. I know they're getting 20 million back. There is that that is undeniable when it comes to looking at this trade.
