Great deal by Kenny, Richard decided to pitch well at the right time again for us. I cant say im all that sorry to see Poreda go. Glad we kept Hudson as well.

 

KW should be exec of the year for getting Peavy AND keeping Flowers and Hudson.

 

Amazing.

 

Also, I wonder why Peavy decided to approve it this time (without any "incentives")?

I think people need to apologize to Jake Peavy. See he was gonna come here.. just wanted to have people jump off the ledge first so he can save the day. :P

We just got Jake Peavy while keeping Dan Hudson. This is absolute win.

Peavy realized he can still go to the north side bars and play with the honeys even if he is on the Sox.

BUT HOW LONG IS HE OUT FOR?!

Wow, this came out of the blue.

 

Herm will fix Peavy.

Indeed. I think I reflexively ejaculated upon hearing the news.

56m through 2012, 74m through 2013.

This might turn out to be the best deal he’s ever done. This was just brilliant. Anyone wanna relive the glory of the old Peavy thread? Didn’t we talk about Penguins?

I must know as well. With him on the DL, I won't be excited about this unless I know we have him locked up for a while.

ESPN.com - Nothing.

lol

Yeah this doesn't surprise me at all. Doesn't feel as awesome the second time around, what with the injury and all, but it'll still be pretty damn neat.

Would've loved to have kept Carter (maybe this is why they kept him in low A even though he had no business there). Besides that, absolutely a steal for us. This is really unbelievable. This came from nowhere. Our rotation is set mid 90's Atlanta Braves style for quite some time.

Just confirmed Steve Stone will not pitch tonight. It might be me, not sure yet.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 31, 2009 -> 03:32 PM)
I had no idea Adam Russell still had value. No Hudson, No Flowers, etc.. :) Though I'm REALLY gonna miss Dex and Richard.. :( But wow.. :o

 

That is unreal keeping them. I love Dexter Carter love him, but god damn KW won this one. This def. makes up for giving away Brandon Allen in my eyes. I hope Clayton Richard pitches well though, he has a nice arm. I still have no idea that Adam Russell still has value, but SD probably likes that arm of his as well.

I think we easily have the best rotation in the AL.

the full effect will be felt in ST next year when the Sox roll out Peavy, MB, Danks and Floyd as the first 4 in their rotation

I think I heard something about the end of August.

Please tell me there isn't any part of this deal that includes automatically picking up 2013.....
