This is lousy that only a few of the names have been mentioned. Don't worry Sux fans, some of your boys will be on there also. 6322596 2009-08-01T12:26:25-04:00 46 mike1025 418152 51 Good luck with the Peavy injuries. There will be more to come!!! 6322549 2009-07-31T19:01:22-04:00 http://img.fannation.com/upload/user_profile/image/216/540/thumb/Mussina.jpg 1469 XX trooper707 No City 216840 You only have 5 starting pitcher spots. Buehrle, Danks, and Floyd are all ready there and really young. Adding Peavy makes them really solid! Peavy played for a poor offensive team and that raises your ERA so just think we did really good! 44 Playing for a weak hitting team raises one's ERA? Can't respond to that one. 6317962 2009-08-01T08:12:23-04:00 11 WA kurt.eger Everett 821364 Playing for a weak hitting team raises one's ERA? Can't respond to that one. 50 My guess would be that he skipped a couple steps. What he probably meant was that if your team sucks on offense, than the good hitters are playing somewhere else, which means the only team that pads your ERA is the team you don't play. For instance, it's easy for the Red Sox and Yankees to have great pitchers, because they don't have to pitch against their own team. You think that C.C.'s ERA would be sparkling at 3.83 in the Wiffle Ball park known as Yankee Stadium if he didn't get to receive a pass on pitching against A-Rod, Tex, Matsui, Posada, Cano, Jeter, Damon, Swisher, and Melky? Yeah, I'm betting that if he was still in Cleveland that his ERA would be close to 4 or 4.50 right now. Just playing the Yankees twice would tack on .20-.30 and then factor in not having the benefit of facing a busted offense in the Indians during the first two months of the season. He went 12.2 IP and gave up only 4 ER against CLE. Imagine how many runs it would have been against NY during that time. Oakland and Baltimore both hun 6 on him 10 days before and 8 days after he gave up only 1 ER to Cleveland. Yeah, who's on your team makes a big difference in the stat column. You think it's a big surprise that the Dodger's middle of the road pitching is dominating with a team full of good hitters? If you take LA's staff and swap them with ANY team in the NL West's staff, I guarantee they go up .50 in team ERA. You have to factor in the games they don't play against the crap offenses of Arizona, San Diego, Colorado, or San Francisco, and add in the games they would have to play against the Dodgers legitimate offense. 6321576 2009-07-31T16:39:23-04:00 http://img.fannation.com/upload/user_profile/image/798/731/thumb/dr.bmp 67 IL PauleGeezy Prospect Heights 799391 10 WERE THE ONLY SOX THAT DONT NEED CHEATERS TO WIN A WORLD SERIES.

I believe those cheaters did lead the White Sox to the world series in a previous year! 3) Quite honestly, I hope the White Sox have a couple guys using banned PEDs because you guys could use it to try and catch the Tigers and the Twins. 6321538 2009-07-31T20:17:58-04:00 http://img.fannation.com/upload/user_profile/image/482/860/thumb/brock280.jpg 459 CA Brock Sampson El Dorado Hills 483300 The point is Lincecum and Cain would not have the ERA's they do if they pitched in the American League. The Dodgers would not have the record they do if not for imbalanced schedules where they get to beat up NL West opponents for nearly half their games.Peavy has been the best pitcher in that division, his lifetime era is 3.29. What do you think his ERA will be now that he is moving to the American League, I'll give you a hint, higher. 47 Those teams the Dodgers beat up on are closing in on the Wild Card spot, not the Mets or some other Big Payroll team, the Dodger would be a great team no matter what Division they played in aside frm the AL East maybe but that wouldnt happen. 6318463 2009-07-31T20:43:21-04:00 http://img.fannation.com/upload/user_profile/image/216/540/thumb/Mussina.jpg 1469 XX trooper707 No City 216840 Those teams the Dodgers beat up on are closing in on the Wild Card spot, not the Mets or some other Big Payroll team, the Dodger would be a great team no matter what Division they played in aside frm the AL East maybe but that wouldnt happen. 48 The Dodgers are a very good baseball team no question. And Lincecum and Cain are very good pitchers no question. What I'm saying is the Dodgers record wouldn't be as good if they had to play an AL schedule, especially and AL East one. And Lincecum and Cain's ERA would be substantially higher in the American league, especially again, in the Al East. You can make book that Peavy's ERA with the White Sox will hover near 4. 6318582 2009-07-31T19:00:11-04:00 http://img.fannation.com/upload/user_profile/image/216/540/thumb/Mussina.jpg 1469 XX trooper707 No City 216840 i'm over all this nl west bashing. you know there is baseball outside of the midwest and the east coast right? dodgers have had the best record all year. can you name a 1-2 duo of starters better than the giants' lincecum and cain? and what about the rockies, if you've been following anything about baseball outside of your own hometown teams you'd know how formidable the nl west is this season. 43 The point is Lincecum and Cain would not have the ERA's they do if they pitched in the American League.

NO TEAM BEFORE '06 or '07 can say something like that an still most teams cant.

Peavy's career home ERA is 2.83 with a 1.09 WHIP and 3.67 K's per walk, in 111 games. Peavy's career away ERA is 3.84 with a 1.30 WHIP and 2.55 K's per walk, in 101 games.
