What's Going On With Jake Peavy?

[archiebunkerjr]

White Sox fans, what's going on with Jake Peavy? I haven't seen any video of him this year. Has he lost zip off his fastball? Does he not pitch well in cold weather?

He has playing-for-the-White-Sox syndrome.

7 Runs, 7 BB. Not like Jake at all.

Probably went South when I guaranteed he'd win AL CY Young award. My bad. But it's hasn't cursed Halladay (yet).

 

[ozzie's translator]

He needs to watch whatever John Danks is doing right now! Any bets on when Hudson hits the rotation??

The American League and not being in Petco is what's going on with Peavy.

BOOM.. best answer here...I could almost pitch in Petco...well almost.. no one could hit off me cause I couldnt throw far enough to cross the plate!! I will admit..wimpy girl..but just saying..

AL may be harder to pitch, but I am not sure if that's the main reason for Peavy's struggles. His fastball was sitting at 91 and could not spot any pitches and walked 7 batters. I am sure more than a handful of NL pitchers can do better than that.

Petco nor the AL has anything to due with the lack of velocity or the elevated number of walks. It is lack of strength and control, issues from his time on the DL last year. The WS new he was a risk when they acquired him, he just needs more time.

+2, he was 5-0 last year in the AL, just needs some time.
