He is a giant p**** who is scared of pitching outside of San Diego and the NL.

 

I think the same thing. He might be afraid of the DH rule in the American League.

I don't blame him. Leaving both that park and that league would expose the fact that he is not a true ace compared to the rest of MLB's aces.

This could be the most embarrasing day in white sox history.

 

20-1 and a superstar laughs at our trade attempt.

 

Yeah, this is not a good day for the organization. However, that 22 million dollar option is just ridiculous. By that time, Peavy's going to have a ton of milleage on that slider throwing elbow.

Its always about money, and the sox will always never spend.

To be fair, the Sox have always been cheap when it comes to pitching and not wanting to overspend on huge long-term to deals. And the Sox have usually been right in their dealings with pitching.

if its because the sox didnt want to give him that option, that is just embarassing....

 

No, it really isn't. Would you want possibly 25% of your payroll tied up in one player? Around that time, Danks and Quentin would be getting big change also if their careers go as we hope.

So we wouldnt pick up that option? What team would? The Cubs new ownership sure as s*** wont, nor do they have the pieces, the Brewers dont have the money, either does Atl. Where the f*** do you think you are going Mr Peavy

 

I honestly believe Peavy believes the Braves or Cubs will trade for him. He will continue to be a coward until he can go to those teams. At least this saves someone from calling him the White Javy.

Someone posted on here a while ago the history of major long term pitching contracts and how they worked out. Historically it really shows that it is not worth it. Good call KW.
