Great thinking Jake.

 

Push it as far as you can...

 

But don't push it.

It is what it is...

David Haugh inspired a thought when I read his column this morning. Maybe we should trade Jake Peavy for Jay Cutler. That should make everyone happy.

"Tendinitis is not an unusual event for pitchers in spring training, especially considering Jake went six months without throwing (live) compared to the usual three. It's why spring training is six weeks.'' -- Dr. Tony Romeo the surgeon who operated on Peavy.

 

I was getting a little tired of Jake's injury stuff. But after seeing reaction to his soreness while having the flu, I now feel sorry for him. GO JAKE! JFP!!!

Jake has really done nothing to piss me off. I appreciate that he is working as hard as he is and wants to win so badly and I'm sure his teammates and manager do too. I just hope that karma pulls through in this instance and he can stay healthy. I think he will.

I'm with you on this. I would like to quote this post to prove your awesomeness.

 

It's frustrating... we all know we have this world-class starter on our favorite team, but the guy just can't get out there. It will be very rewarding if/when he is able to put some starts together and dominate.

Until he tore his back in half last year, he was doing just that -- dominating in his recent starts.

 

I hope he can get back out there and continue where he left off, sooner rather than later.

Yeah, I believe I was watching MLB Network where they always show the rankings in the background and JFP was like 3rd in the AL in strikeouts prior to that start.

Yea - but he sucks. Always has sucked, always will suck, and will never again be healthy - now that we've heard about a sore rotator cuff - it is over. He's a glass piece of s*** ass hole.

Peavy played catch today, getting looked at by surgeon

Which has always been the case.

The surgeon saying yesterday that Peavy will be limited to 60 pitches - was saying so without even seeing him and based upon current circumstances. Things have changed in the last 48 hours and we could get some good news today. Who knows.

That same surgeon had another comment somewhere a page or two ago.

A much more positive comment, no less... but I'm not digging for it!

It had something to do with ALL THIS BEING NOT UNUSUAL.

Yea, that's not in the doom and gloom realm - thus, people around here tend to ignore it.

 

Pthh

Merkin: A very focused Kenny Williams encouraged by news on Peavy. Won't officially rule out Peavy for Opening Day--wait and see situation

^

 

Oh brother. Just shut his ass down for a week and think May 1st. Is it that difficult?

But peavy is a glass peice of s*** who will never ever pitch again!

I don't think anybody said he sucks or that he will always suck. The fact is, though, that he hasn't been healthy for this team yet. And yes, a sore rotator cuff is pretty bad news. There is good reason to be angry at him for never being healthy, and plenty of reason to think that he's prone to injury.

 

And you know what, I don't appreciate you calling me out. You bring absolutely nothing in the way of baseball discussion to this board. You've been doing the same to J4L for the last week, and he's been on this board for years having logical arguments. I honestly can't recall a single post of yours that had any relevance or even more than barely made sense.

 

I'll probably get a suspension for this, but you honestly have no basis for mocking the posts of other people on this board when all of yours are pure garbage. You bring nothing to this board, and I imagine nobody would rather see your posts over those of J4L and, I hope, mine.

not picking a fight, but are you f***ing serious? Frustrated, yes. Disappointed, yes. Angry? You think this guy has done something to bring this on himself? Blame management for bringing him in, blame Cooper for not fixing his mechanics (if that's even realistic) but getting mad at him seems pretty irrational. No, not seems. Is.

I don't care how much of a competitor Peavy is, or how hard he's trying to come back to be of value to this team. He's nothing but a drain on this team. Go f*** yourself, you glass piece of s***.

That can easily be interpreted as "he sucks"

I don't give a f*** how irrational it is. The guy is paid extremely well to pitch and he never does because he's always hurt. I can't get angry at a shoulder injury or a torn muscle, but I can be upset at the guy who keeps having the injuries because he's not able to do what he's supposed to do. He's injury prone, I'll get him a box of Kleenex. I'll still be angry at him for being injured.

Milkman delivers...again.

 

And Curt Hennig remains dead.

Explain to me how he's not a drain on the team, then. I can't be held responsible because someone can't interpret what I said. I'm angry because I know he doesn't suck, in fact he's quite good. We just can't see how good he is because he's always on the DL.

Oh come on Kenny...don't be optimistic about opening day. Be optimistic about a bit later, when Peavy might actually be healthy instead of hiding "normal" soreness.

That's fine with me. I'll be the new devil of the board. I'm NOT being mean or whatever, but I don't give a s*** what Humber has done this spring or what he's added. He's hippos***. If this were the Cubs, we'd all be laughing. But since it's the Sox there's some kinda fake hope that he can be good. That won't work on me. If I turn out to be wrong, so be it. But the odds that I'm wrong are pretty low. Like really low.

 

If Webster's ever needs an illustration for pessimist, they should give you a call. Why do you even follow the team? I'm convinced you're a troll with nothing but Cubbie pinstripes everywhere.
