Balta1701 Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 QUOTE (jphat007 @ Apr 12, 2010 -> 07:46 PM) The summer of 2009 is going to be the worst thing that ever happened to the white sox. Really? 1919? 88 years without a world series? The game where they wore shorts? Disco Demolition night? 2007? David Wells? GM Harrelson? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 12, 2010 -> 11:46 PM) I think Peavy let that last call to Overbay affect him there. Stop making excuses for him like people made for Javy. These guys are getting paid a ton of money, and simply aren't performing so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's referring to the contracts of Rios and Peavy, those are going to hurt the Sox a lot more than Wells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Apr 12, 2010 -> 06:47 PM) ok so im kind of confused by peavys velocity. -i thought he always threw hard, like 95. since hes been with the sox ive only seen him at about 90-92. so has he always been at about 92 with his fastball or whats going on? That's how fast he's been throwing for a while now. He's averaging 91-92 on his fastball. It was the case last year and in 08. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Peavy looked pissed at that last call to Overbay, maybe he was still pissed and had a mental lapse. Who knows? That's not an excuse, that's simply a thought about why that pitch was so poorly located. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got 22+ million dollars locked up for several years that could be used for other, really good players.

iWiN4PreP Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 lol @ all the peavy nonsense, I think some of us here may have thought he would post a sub 3.00 ERA, he's not that kind of pitcher in AL. I expect 3.85 ERA ish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, lets ignore actual reality for a second..... I'm really not sold on that. The scouts were just bashing his stuff this Spring (not just what we heard in the press). It wasn't his fastball they were worried about, but rather his slider was being thrown at a different plane. I really do hope it works out for him in Chicago though, so by no means am I giving up on him yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
