08:15 AM ET 03.19 | Jake Peavy has been around injury long enough to ponder all sorts of things. He's not quite ready for it at this point, but the thought has already crossed his mind: When his time is done as a starter, [Peavy] might let it all hang out as a closer. "If I can't stay healthy for 200 innings, if somebody says something about closing or being a reliever, I can do that, I can be a reliever," the White Sox pitcher said on Saturday. "How do I know that? I can be a reliever because I think I can. That's the bottom line. I can do something because I believe I can do it. If it comes down to that, I'll do it because I love this game." ... "If I'm healthy, I'm a starter at heart. But down the road? There's no doubt I have thought about it.

They better not make him a reliever this year considering he's making $17 million.

True, you wont get any insurance money if he doesnt spend time on the DL vs him relieving for a whole season...

Whatever decision Kenny makes will be the right one, and we'll all be enlightened by it. He knows what's right. Just ask him.

If he gets shut down again this year they may have no choice but to banish him to the bullpen, ala Kerry Wood. His arm doesn't appear to be able to handle the innings anymore.

Oh, you didn't? Yeah, right after he lays out Robin's clothes for him in the morning but before he packs his lunch for that day.

He did pitch 5 scoreless the other day. Of course that isn't really indicative of anything long term, but it's better than getting shelled I guess.

How can he live on that? Eat day old bread and surplus cheese? It ain't fair.

I don't think that he thinks he can hold up over an entire season.
