Great.
Another favorite player I'll be forced to hate.
There are
rumors floating around the internet that
San Diego Padres righty
Jake Peavy is about to head to Chicago. Only, he'll be donning the South Side Pinstripes, not surrounded by ivy as expected. The deal (contingent upon Peavy waiving his no-trade clause) supposedly includes left-hander
Clayton Richard and 22-year-old southpaw
Aaron Poreda. However, some reports say the
deal is not imminent.
If I were a
White Sox fan, I'd be pretty fired up about now. The 17-22 team could use a boost to their rotation, whose inconsistencies this season pretty much end with
Mark Buehrle.
We'll keep you posted.

It's been rumored that San Diego Padres pitcher Jake Peavy has been coming to Chicago for quite a while now after the Cubs tried to work out a deal for the Cy Young Award winner over the summer, but apparently it's not the Cubs who may be landing him. As you've no doubt heard by now, it seems that the White Sox and Padres have come to an agreement on a trade that would...

I’ve written a short, one-act, one-man play based on today’s rumor that the only thing standing between Jake Peavy and a trade to the White Sox is Peavy’s approval. I will play the part of Jake Peavy.

I went to Baseball Reference today to click on the random player page, hoping to find someone to write about. Normally I don’t write about steroid users but since Jake Peavy is going to the crosstown White Sox and Santangelo was a noted Cub killer I couldn’t resist.
When I was young, probably 12 or 13 [...]

With another key start last night in which he stopped a White Sox losing streak, Mark Buehrle proved once again his importance as the decade-long ace of the White Sox pitching staff. He also continues to be the most underrated and underappreciated ace in Major League Baseball.

FOXSports.com is reporting that the White Sox are making a push for Padres ace Jake Peavy. Peavy, who would have to waive his no-trade clause, reportedly met with manager Bud Black to discuss the possible trade. Peavy seemed open to the idea when I interviewed him, but he never directly said that to me. This trade is no guarantee, especially because Peavy has to decide if he wants...

When the weather warms up, and the Sox play at home, the ball tends to leave the yard. And that my friends, is enough to cure the offensive woe's of these Chicago White Sox.We all know that this team is full of power sluggers, like Thome, Dye, Quintin, and Konerko. It only makes sense, that when the ball starts flying in a home run friendly park like US Cellular, that crooked...
