I can't stand this anymore but I think Joe the Mets fan may have a point, it will be worth it if we get him. I am just scared that Peavy will be on the DL by the All-Star break and Yunel will be in the All-Star game. All this talk about his shoulder and elbow worries me. It is sorta like getting M.Hampton from Houston or from the Rockies. I don't know why that is just what comes to mind.JayD-SD you can have C.SammonsThu, 13 Nov 2008 21:52:04 -0000http://www.braveslaunchpad.com/2008/11/edgy-braves-blogger-is-sick-of-waiting-on-peavy/#comment-3761015Us Mets fans had to wait on Santana through January!!! It's only mid-November, that's nothing!!! It's worth the wait, trust me.JoeThu, 13 Nov 2008 17:01:29 -0000http://www.braveslaunchpad.com/2008/11/edgy-braves-blogger-is-sick-of-waiting-on-peavy/#comment-3757467As a Braves fan, how do you feel about giving up so many players in a deal for Peavy?nittanydelphiaThu, 13 Nov 2008 14:51:38 -0000http://www.braveslaunchpad.com/2008/11/edgy-braves-blogger-is-sick-of-waiting-on-peavy/#comment-3750613Your contingency plan is nearly identical to mine except we differ on 1 point. I prefer AJ Burnett you prefer Derek Lowe. The main reason I prefer Burnett is we need a power pitcher, I'm sick of watching these junk pitchers like Jorge Campillo throw 22 mile an hour curveballs to make their 51 mile an hour fastball look good. Jurrjens can be a power pitcher at times, but his best pitch is his change-up and he doesn't seem like a strike-out type guy. Mike Hampton is just straight junk, cutter after cutter after cutter. Derek Lowe sits on the mound and throws sinkers, sliders, and moving low 90's fastballs. Good, just not quite what we need. We're in the hunt for more of a high-90's fastball guy that can blow the opposition away. That way our junk pitcher looks better the next day. I did an article on building a rotation awhile back, here it is:http://atlantabred.mlblogs.com/archives/2008/05/howto_guide_build_a_rotation.htmlAtlantaBredThu, 13 Nov 2008 14:26:13 -0000
