Can It Get Any Worse? Yeah. And It Just Did.

I said yesterday it's easier to walk off the mound in Norfolk than it is in Yankee Stadium. And that's exactly what Jake Peavy did after 3.1 IP tonight. According to reports, it was a recurrence of the tightness in his elbow resulting from the line drive that hit him in his last start. Obviously, his status going forward won't be known for a couple days but it seems unlikely he will make his White Sox debut next week. [Update Sun. 10:27 am: Now Peavy is having x-rays on Monday. Sort of sounds like something that should have been done maybe a bit closer to when he was struck by the ball.]
And if you wanted just one more kick in the ribs while you're down, 2009 top draft pick Jared Mitchell is dealing with a leg injury which has caused him to miss three of Kannapolis' last four games and, yesterday, when he did play, he re-aggravated the injury. His availability for the rest of the season is uncertain. It's always great when speed guys get leg injuries.

Who's accountable?
Early in the year a lack of talent was the problem, but that’s not the case now. Guillen and KW aren’t going anywhere, and it’s obvious that this level of play is unacceptable to management.. I suspect many heads will roll.

Hey, but Peavy is a pussy who shouldn't be coddled.
My only regret of the 2009 season is that they didn’t fail sooner, so all the genius 2nd guessers would have come out sooner.
“The players don’t like each other! They want out! Ozzie has butt sex during games!”
The 2009 White Sox....like a 40 degree day.
come on, you knew a team expected to win 130 games wouldn't fail any earlier than this.

I'm sorry, but when I look at that Opening Day roster I see 49 Hall of Famers
Josh Fields 3b? Dewayne Wise leading off and in CF? This division should have been clinched in May.

Yeah I can't believe that a team which started the season with
1) Contreras and Colon making up 2/5 of the rotation
and
2) Starting Dewayne Wise in CF, Fields at 3B, and Getz (who still has a sub .700 OPS so I’m throwing him in there)
Didn’t make the playoffs. Shocking.

surely your opinion changed when...
q missed two months, came back not completely healthy, and looks nothing like Q!; a pitcher nobody expected to be back until september came over via trade; and a guy ops’ing under .750 on the season was acquired.

Quentin has looked fine since hitting his first HR
Problem is more than couple of months he missed while JD and Konerko were doing well, and now they’ve decided to slump. Rios is around for defense, its more of a hope that he returns to former 800+ OPS days in the future, if he only does league average and has maybe 1 particularly good offensive year plus great defense that’s probably good enough and close to contract value. Of course they do have to put him in the starting lineup for his defense to have an impact…
not enough to anchor playoff expectations for this year.
in any event, konerko is at his career averages in avg/obp/slg/eqa and probably every other measure. dye is obviously struggling more than he has in recent second halves, but expecting him to maintain his first half through the season wasn’t very realistic based on age and ups and downs of recent years. as for quentin, .234/.326/.444/.770 (numbers since he’s been back) are not Q! (as opposed to q) numbers. you’re right that he has been better the last month, but not good enough to carry the rest.

retard.
gordon “the savior” beckham joined the team. i don’t know why i should have expected anything less than an intergalactic title.

looks like today's opponent has the upper hand there too.

my immediate thought is that
peavy’s gonna need major surgery. they’ll realize it early next year so he misses both 2010 and most of 2011. he comes back kinda like jason bere did.
