July 7, 201016 yr Regardless of what it is, that looked REALLY bad. Hopefully Hudson can do his thing.
July 7, 201016 yr I honestly think we still need a bat more even if Peavy is out for a while. Our pitching is that good and our hitting is that bad.

July 7, 201016 yr If it's a surgery type injury, it sucks on how much it will impact the Sox next year as well.
July 7, 201016 yr Let's hope it wasn't as bad as it looked. Because if it was, it probably is a surgery type injury that affects us into next year.
July 7, 201016 yr Buster_ESPN: Heard this: The Lee trade talks are "heating up" according to a source with some teams interested in adding the lefty ASAP. This was minutes after Jake went down. How quick is Kenny? Ok semi-serious but maybe?
July 7, 201016 yr No thanks on Lee, we'd still have holes in our offense and then no prayer of extending Lee. I think Hudson can be a decent #5 starter.
July 7, 201016 yr After watching Zumaya roll around in pain for 10 min a couple days ago, sounds like he just strained something. AS break couldn't be more perfect.

Our best trading chip is gonna have to take Peavy's rotation spot, so that could hurt our odds to get a bat.

Exactly, I think Hudson will be fine as a #5. Honestly, I think the key is Garcia. If he can continue to pitch well, we'll be fine.
July 7, 201016 yr Just had Cubs fans friends texting me if I'd trade Peavy for Z straight up right now after seeing JFP's arm possibly fall off. I still said f*** no.
July 7, 201016 yr To be honest I think we need a big bat now more than ever. The quality of our pitching just went down, I like Hudson but no one expect him to be an ace, that means we'll need more run support. Edited July 7, 201016 yr by justBLAZE

July 7, 201016 yr I think we know what we have to do: trade Noah and get Prince Fielder in a sign-and-trade.
July 7, 201016 yr Allow me to pose this very pessimistic question (I know, surprising): How deflating would it be to lose Peavy for the season after doing so much in the last three weeks to climb right into the thick of things? That's just depressing to even think about.

This was minutes after Jake went down. How quick is Kenny? Ok semi-serious but maybe? I saw this too, and I thought about it, but decided it was a complete coincidence. He tweeted it 8 minutes after Peavy got hurt.. probably took him at least 2 to type it.

That's just depressing to even think about. Especially with Clayton Richard pitching so well.
