JAKE PEAVY RUMORS & GOSSIP

Game Picks - Sunday: May 27, 2012

At long last, a very good day for the Game Picks. The day games went almost exactly as predicted. Well...Jake Peavy won, but it wasn't pretty. Anyway, all the day games were correct. Even picking the Royals worked out. Some of the later games did not work out so well. The Brewers were supposed to win and did not. The Astros were supposed to win and ralphed. That's what...

Lowe looks to get the Tribe back on track

While Derek Lowe was enduring one of the worst seasons of his career in 2011, the Chicago White Sox's Jake Peavy was dealing with another injury-plagued one. Now healthy, Peavy will try to add to his promising campaign when he faces a rejuvenated Lowe and the Cleveland Indians on Saturday afternoon. Peavy, the 2007 NL Cy Young Award winner, hasn't won more than seven games...

Peavy, Dunn back to former glory

McDonald’s has become a dynasty because of consistency. When you walk into one of the fast-food giant’s restaurants in Seattle, it is going to be pretty much the same fare you are going to get at a drive-through in Tampa. That same type of consistency is what the Chicago White Sox thought they were getting when the traded for Jake Peavy in 2009 and picked up free agent...

White Sox 8, Indians 1

Jake Peavy coasted for six innings before giving up a run in the seventh and Adam Dunn homered, leading the Chicago White Sox to an easy 8-1 win over the AL Central-leading Cleveland Indians on Wednesday night and a split of their four-game series.

Dunn, Peavy thriving after rough 2011

Jake Peavy is younger than you think. He's only 30 years old. But he's been around long enough to know the difference between "LOOK, IT'S JAKE PEAVY!" and "Dude, remember when you were good?" Peavy won the pitching Triple Crown in San Diego five years ago. In one of baseball's quaintest outposts, he was the most popular figure not named Gwynn...

Chicago White Sox must start winning the close ones

To be honest, I was very optimistic going into this weekend’s series against the Detroit Tigers. Our Chicago White Sox were coming off a series loss against the division rival Cleveland Indians, but the Tigers have not necessarily been playing up to their potential. With Jake Peavy on the mound on Friday, it was looking like we would take advantage of their shortcomings and...

Line of the Day: Jake Peavy

April 23, 2012: Jake Peavy pitched a three-hit shutout in leading the Chicago White Sox to a 4-0 victroy over the Oakland Athletics. He struck out five, walked two and extended his scoreless innings streak to 14 innings. It was the sixth shutout performance of his career. Line: 9 IP | 3 H | 0 ER | 2 BB | 5 K; W (3-0) | QS | CG | SHO My fantasy perspective: Peavy is turning out to...

Jake Peavy - The best story of 2012 so far

Jake Peavy has always been a favorite here. For one, his name has Maine roots. A peavy is a logging tool used to separate logs in the river or millponds. It was invented and named after a Peavy that lived right up here in northern Maine. Who knows if the pitcher from the Chicago White Sox has any ancestral connection to the inventor, but it is fun to speculate. Anyway, our man, Peavy...

Chicago White Sox: Defying expectations

Before the first game of the season, numerous baseball analysts picked the Detroit Tigers to be the odds-on favorite to make it to the World Series. At the same time, they picked the division rival Chicago White Sox to be a 95 loss team. However, as it stands right now, some of those analysts might be doubting their predictions. Personally, I figured it was lucky to have the White...
