Will be watching Jake Peavy closely in his next couple of starts I'm wondering how many more times and in how many more threads we can repost this tweet. I'm all for spamming the board on this one just because Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 19, 2013 -> 02:20 PM) Aug 31 vs. DET - 6 IP, 6 ER Sep 5 vs MIN - 6 IP, 1 ER Sep 11 vs DET - 5.2 IP, 3 ER Sep 16 vs MIN - 6 IP, 2 ER Sep 21 vs LAA - 5 IP, 5 ER Your stats are skewed by his last two starts when there was no pressure anymore. He struggled vs. DET when it mattered, then when the Sox needed a win vs. LA, he gave up runs early. Detroit is also one of the best offensive teams in baseball, so his giving up more runs against them vs someone like Minnesota isn't really a surprise.

I'm just saying that the whole PRESSURE thing was overly simplistic in that it didn't factor in anything of substance related to the opponent. It really isn't a surprising thing that Detroit scores more runs off of a pitcher than Minnesota does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harfman77 Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ Jul 19, 2013 -> 09:28 AM) Rangers want Garza in time to start tomorrow. Talking about moving on to Bud Norris if they can't get a deal done soon. Rangers and Garza may be falling through "mystery NL team" involved. Probably either the Dodgers or Giants, but the chance for Peavy to the Rangers still lives. I like their farm system as much as anyones.

Baron Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Rumor has it medicals have led to the Cubs-Rangers trade disintegrating. The player that is having medical problems? Mike Olt. You guys remember me talking about a week ago about the concern for his medicals. Others in the scouting community are expressing the same concern. Believe me or not but I did my HW on this.

I know about the medicals being the reason. Was looking for the specifics on Olt. I'm not huge on him, so it doesn't bother me much but Bowden and others seemed to imply it was Neil Ramirez's shoulder that was the issue.

The thing with Olt is nobody knows how he got vision issues. Some feared it may have been from the concussion he suffered a few months back. But he didnt have any of those problems going on before the concussion. Anyway a deal between the Cubs and Rangers doesnt sound very promising at the moment. I'm getting tired of hearing about Garza....hopefully a deal comes soon Edited July 20, 2013 by Baron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UPDATE: We are hearing that it was meds on the Texas Rangers side and that it was one of the pitchers. Perhaps Feliz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 (edited) QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jul 19, 2013 -> 10:32 AM) Sure you can. Would you rather have Phil Humber or Jake Peavy right now? I know I'm going to take Peavy because he's a better pitcher, regardless of injury. I didn't think I needed to say if you arent pitching you can't be better than Garza ,who is pitching,and pitching very well, which is what was being discussed. Who would you rather trade for to give your team an edge with 70 games remaining an uninjured Garza or an injured Peavy ? Garza who is a groove now or Peavy who may have to build up some arm strength to get back to where he was and take a few games to get there thus shortening the season even more ? I realize Peavy is worth more considering the team getting him will have him for next year too but right now its who's better for the rest of the season.
