ChiSox_Sonix Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 03:33 PM) It's not just the 4 days rest, but it's the fact that he's ending up throwing a ton of game pitches in an 8 day period coming off of the DL. If this was Buehrle, that's one thing. But this is someone that seems to struggle keeping their stuff for a week or so after a high pitch count game. I know you said this before the game started, so I'm not implying you're doing this in hindsight, but it's normal rest coming off what 60 pitches? I'm sorry, if Peavy can't handle that he shouldn't be pitching. I just don't believe this was a bad move. Unfortunately it's started off poorly, but even if continues this way I'm not going to blame it on starting "too soon". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 (edited) Was reading that Verlander has a 0.72 ERA in his last 7 starts. That doesn't even include the no-hitter against the Blue Jays. 10+ K's (including 14) in 3 consecutive games. The Mets had scored something like 56 runs in the 4 games coming into the match-up, so you're not going to get a hotter line-up against him. Laughing at the Rockies' radio team saying "Beckham had a fine year in 2010." .252, 9, 49. I guess that's what we're left to expect now.

ChiSox_Sonix Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 03:34 PM) We're talking Peavy, though. Not Verlander. I don't like Peavy pitching in Coors. And any extra rest you can afford to give him works for me. Who would have been bumped up? I'd rather Peavy starting in Coors over Humber or Floyd as he's more apt to miss bats.

ChiSox_Sonix Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Ok that's a terrible at bat, even if he had gotten a hit. Up 2-0 in the count after a walk and a HBP. Should have been waiting him out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxbrian Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 I've said it once and I'll say it again, Cook is bad. He has no clue where he's throwing it right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping for the best but I could see what you're worried about playing out too unfortunately. Just seems like it would have been a good time to push him back a day, keep Jackson on 5 days rest, and have Peavy go up against a Cubs lineup that he even said he matches up better again. Oh well, we just need him to stay healthy the rest of the way, and in the long run, it's doubtful this game will impact his health that much.
