August 30, 200916 yr Mitchell is years away at best. He soooo doesn't matter right now. Peavy is mattering less and less with each passing day.
August 30, 200916 yr as long as it is just a lingering effect of the line drive I'm not overly worried, I just hope it's not a new injury.

If anything we should be overly cautious when it comes to Peavy. If we're going to need a ski lift or whatever to get to the top of the mountain then we shouldn't be looking for him to contribute this season anyway. Shut him down if we have to. If we shut Peavy down I'd make Freddy the #4, and if he finishes strong, I'd try to extend him through next season to be our #5 before he hits free agency. A healthy Freddy would be a great #5 for us and it would make Hudson the 6th starter, so if we want to work him in through the bullpen we can, and if not, it gives us depth and the kind of cushion we did not have this season. Then I'd either bring up Hudson as the #5, or if the Sox feel he's overworked, I'd shut him down and call up Harrell. No reason to start Torres, Whisler, Colon, Contreras, etc. I like Harrell's stuff but the control/confidence issues still appear to exist, so I'd like to see him work a little with Coop and see if we can get something positive going for him at the end of the year. Either do that, or maybe crowd the clubhouse so that we have a bullpen day for 5th starters. Run out Harrell, Link, Santeliz, Nunez, DRod, and maybe Fernando Hernandez too every 5th day so that we get a good look at some of our relief prospects. DRod and Hernandez would have to be added to the 40-man, but that's no big deal because we have to do that anyway if we want to keep them out of the Rule-5 draft.
August 30, 200916 yr I would like to see Jake Peavy pitch ay least once this season for the Sox. Maybe even more times as I ain't giving up yet as frustrating as this stretch has been
August 30, 200916 yr QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Aug 30, 2009 -> 10:00 AM) Shut Peavy down. Why? 5 games back with 30 games to go including 6 with the team in front of you. This isn't over by a long shot.

If Peavy is healthy he should pitch. If not, he shouldn't. It's as simple as that. As soon as they deem him ready enough to go against major league hitters, he should pitch. I'm guessing that will be sometime within the next couple of weeks.
August 30, 200916 yr Anybody want to re vote in my poll? Like I said, there is no point in pitching Peavy this year. Just get him ready for 2010. The Mitchell injury is not relevant at all unless it's somehow way more serious than it sounds, it's late in the minor league season anyway and it's not like he's anywhere near ready to be in Chicago anyways.

I would leave him on the DL for the rest of the year. We are closer to 4th in the Division than 1st. We will be lucky to hold of the Indians for the 3rd place.
August 30, 200916 yr I was against shutting him down. but im starting to think that it may be the smartest idea. we are going to need him 100% in 2010. 2009 is garbage.

August 31, 200916 yr That would be funny if we fell behind Cleveland. We truly are a team that has tanked.
