Click the play button below to hear Joe McDonald's comments, recorded this morning from Las Vegas. The topics: Reaction to the CC Sabathia deal, when news might break on Mark Teixeira, concerns about the economy, and the aura of Scott Boras.






Here's an excerpt from a story Joe related about Boras' appearance before members of the media yesterday:

We were in the hallway of the Bellagio hotel, right outside the elevators, and there were countless reporters waiting for [Boras], and he came out in front of this little shop here at the Bellagio. Everybody surrounded him, the cameras are going the recorders are going, and a security guard came over and said, "That's it, stop filming. This has to end." Well, obviously, that didn't happen, it kept going, and then finally the security guard had to call his manager.

The manager came down and asked one of Boras' PR guys -- and yes, Scott Boras does have his own PR guy -- "Who's that."

"'Well, that's Scott Boras" [said the PR guy]

"I don't know who that is." [said the security manager]

"Well, these guys do, and good luck trying to stop this right here." [responded the PR guy]
