Projo SoxTalk with McAdam: Not everything's okey dokey

Click here to watch the video of Sean's comments, recorded this morning. The topics: Last night's loss, the struggling Hideki Okajima and his accountability issues, the improved state of the bullpen in general, and Kevin Millar's inability to cut the cord with Boston.

Here are some excerpts from Sean's comments:

Teammates' reactions to Okajima not answering questions about his poor outings: "I've got to believe that most of those guys in there -- who are standup guys, and who are around and are acountable for what they do and don't do -- take note of the fact that Okajima does not feel the same responsibility, and I think a number of them were struck and perhaps offput by Okajima's puzzlement a few weeks ago over why he still comes into games in the middle of innings. ... Rather than express frustration over his own inability to perform in such situations, he seemed kind of angry that he was put in them in the first place, and that seems to be misplacing the problem there and blaming it on someone else."

On Millar's continuing affection for the Red Sox: "If I'm an Orioles fan, I'm wondering what side is this guy on. I don't think he means any harm by it. He clearly enjoyed his few years here in Boston and has a hard time letting go, but if I'm a teammate or a fan, I'm probably looking at it differently in Baltimore."
