With how important Peavy's trade value is, why does everybody think this was all Robin's decision? I guarantee Rick Hahn gave him instructions as to how much he should or can pitch. He was still under 120 pitches. Any team looking to trade for him wants to see him pitch deep into games, you can't pull him in the 5th after 90+ and expect teams to be impressed. He's not an 18 year old draft pick, he's a pro being called on to win late season games.

Detroit sucks

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 25, 2013 -> 06:43 PM) Soriano to the Yankees. Cubs scratched him from the line up. Trade is 99% done. In their last 25 games, the Yankees have zero home runs from their RH batters. And some guy named Melky Mesa has been starting in left field.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jul 25, 2013 -> 03:12 PM) HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT ABOUT HIM, JAKE PEAVY IS A SAINT JAKE PEAVY = DOROTHY MANTOOTH

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 25, 2013 -> 03:13 PM) I've never been a Peavy guy, but jeez, the guy has worked hard through some stuff. If he gets pulled from the game, you stand and applaud the guy. Or don't. I'll applaud for sure, as I said I enjoyed him on the Sox. I just had higher expectations for the $14.5 million ace with a playoff berth on the line.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 25, 2013 -> 03:14 PM) Don't forget his great starts that don't count because they weren't against Detroit Those two starts against Minnesota, awesome. Way to earn that $14.5 million

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 25, 2013 -> 02:52 PM) He hasn't done anything worthy of a standing O. He had barely 1 good season for us, and that season didn't even get a playoff birth. And he pitched like s*** when it mattered in that one good season. End of last year, he had two bad starts vs. DET, and in the third one he couldn't even finish the sixth inning. Needed a big win against the Angels, and he got rocked. Kinda similar to his limited postseason career in San Diego. But god forbid you say something bad about Jake Peavy the competitor. I love having him on the Sox, but I can't stand his apology society that says he does nothing wrong.

At least Yovani Gallardo keeps losing trade value by the hour

Whoever trades for Peavy better hope they don't face Detroit in the playoffs, because he is their b****.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 25, 2013 -> 12:53 PM) The Red Sox, Cardinals, Dodgers, Braves, and Orioles each have a scout in attendance, tweets ESPN's Jayson Stark, while the Reds and Rangers have two apiece. Keep in mind that their presence does not necessarily imply trade interest in Peavy. per mlbtraderumors So there are more scouts in attendance than there are Sox fans?

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Jul 25, 2013 -> 11:43 AM) @BradBiggs Bears DT Sedrick Ellis didn't show for training camp and has informed team he plans to retire. Wasn't a lack of commitment and dedication one of his major issues in NO? Oh well, on to the next one.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jul 24, 2013 -> 11:01 PM) Lake looks like the best center fielder caulfield has ever seen. A Devon White/Mickey Mantle hybrid. There will be many articles to review. ***Awaits "Lake-Mania Thread"***

Video of the train derailment in Spain. Might wanna slow down on those curves.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 24, 2013 -> 09:43 PM) The Dodgers are playing incredible baseball Who needs Matt Kemp? Along the same lines, the Blue Jays are playing some dreadful White Sox-esque baseball.

QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 24, 2013 -> 06:21 PM) I'm so glad you arent in charge greg.... greg is just praying that somehow the Sox get AJ back in a trade with the Rangers

QUOTE (Marty34 @ Jul 24, 2013 -> 05:53 PM) My concern would be if the Cubs put Smaradja on the market. That won't happen until next summer.

LOL at Soriano talking about wanting to win a World Series. The eventual champ last year tried to trade for you, and you said no.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jul 24, 2013 -> 04:33 PM) http://mylittleblackhawk.tumblr.com/ oddest thing ive seen today on the internets. First Flapship, now this Tumblr. Nothing but self-promotion from you Badger.

QUOTE (PlaySumFnJurny @ Jul 24, 2013 -> 11:00 AM) Crain > K Rod. With the season he was having, I think he still has lots of value. Reports I've read are that his shoulder is just "strained," not really structurally "injured" per se, which I assume could be verified in a physical. If so, teams should be willing to gamble he will bounce back with rest, given the way he was overused. I disagree. If I were trading for one, I think I would take K-Rod. He has had a great year as well. Tons of closing experience and he's played in plenty of postseason games. Crain has 4 career saves & 1.2 career postseason IP.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 24, 2013 -> 12:25 PM) Braun, though it sounds like they have that and more against A-Rod Really? Wow. I definitely read that they had way more on A-Rod. I thought that they only had a few notes about Braun from Biogenesis, nothing major. But if they have cycles and such about Braun, then A-Rod has to be f***ed.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 24, 2013 -> 10:06 AM) Are there any broadcasters out there with the kind of personality that would make them a valid successor to the Hawk? With Caray and Hawk in our recent past, it wouldn't be right to just have some numb nuts like Len Kasper in the booth I'd be ecstatic if Len Kasper replaced Hawk in the Sox booth

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 24, 2013 -> 10:02 AM) They're saying there was evidence of continued and cyclic use. I would say there's a decent chance the guy is juicing as we speak Braun or A-Rod?
