Jake Peavy: "A lot of times in San Diego, it gets to the point where you feel like you take the field outmanned."

PrintPeavy catches up with his former teammates — by playing catch
"When the new (Jeff Moorad) ownership took over, it was made very clear to us that we had to go," Peavy said. "It just didn’t fit the financial game plan at all…
Jake Peavy had a no trade clause. He didn't have to leave San Diego, he chose to leave. He made it very clear that he didn't want to be part of the Padres rebuilding. Winning for himself was more important than winning with the Padres and he didn't believe in the organization's direction. He chased fortune and glory. Since then things haven't worked out very well for him with the White Sox, so he just continues to criticize his former team.
Jeff Moorad and company did the right thing by finding a trade for Peavy. His career is on the decline, he's been plagued by injuries and his salary kept the team from getting better. The Padres have only improved since Peavy left.
"Here, we’ve got an owner (Jerry Reinsdorf) who’s trying his rear end off. He gives us all the resources to compete. As a player, you can’t ask for anything else. If we’re in this (pennant race) in July, if we need something, it will happen. That’s an incredible place to be as a player. In baseball, anything can happen. But we don’t need a Cinderella story to come true to win the World Series."
Is Peavy taunting the Padres, saying that they would need a Cinderella story to make it to the World Series? If so he sounds an awful lot like one of Cinderella's ugly step sisters when they told her a maid could never attend a ball.
What does Peavy know about getting to the World Series anyway? He choked in both of his playoff starts and in Game 163, dashing the Padres own attempts to advance in the post season.

"I didn’t know at times how we were winning games when I was there," Peavy said. "A lot of times in San Diego, it gets to the point where you feel like you take the field outmanned. We did everything we could and the people in charge, (then) Kevin Towers, did an amazing job of finding talent. The coaching staff and managers did a great job of getting the most out of guys, but on a nightly basis, if you went position-by-position, a lot of times you’d take a lot more of their guys than yours."
The reason why the Padres won 90 games last season was because they believed in themselves. They believed that they could beat any team. They weren't comparing positions to see who had bigger names and higher salaries. That's what was lacking when Peavy was a Padre.
"I’ll always be a Padre because that’s what I first was," Peavy said. "When you come up as a kid, you compare everything to that experience. That’s something I’ll always hold dear to my heart.
"There’s not any bad blood. It just came to the point where I didn’t fit into the plans anymore and had to go."
He's not a Padre now and I'm glad.

And they didn't appreciate him.
And now they’ll just have to get along with that cheap floozy Clayton Richard, who might be able to pitch almost twice as many innings, and win twice as many games, but is no Jake Peavy. After all, if they liked it, they should’ve put a (WS) ring on it.

AYFKM?
Peavy DIDN’T fit into their plans. Look at every single high priced player from the past 10 years and where are they? They’re not in San Diego. Look at every mid-to-high priced available the past 10 years. How many signed with the Padres. Peavy’s salary is $15 million, which would currently eat up 40% of the Padres’ entire payroll. He was interviewed and asked questions by a SD reporter. What was he supposed to do, turn it down? He was honest in his assessment of Towers and the team. He said Towers did amazing things with the meager budget he was given, but the team was still usually outmanned. That’s untrue or ungrateful? Geez guys, get over your bitter selves.

"Peavy Lover"?
I’m glad they traded him. He’s an injury waiting to happen. I think he’s talking about talent level, not actual guys.
Peavy is half right
Cheap ownership can’t afford high priced players.
Smart ownership traded an overpriced, injury prone pitcher for one ace (Richard), 2 maybes (Poreda, Carter) and trade bait (Russell for Jason Bartlett). Any club would be happy to make a trade like that.

I don’t get the hate for him.

Because he’s basically saying the white sox are awesome and the pads are bitches. AND he’s indirectly trash-talking his former teammates. The worst part is, why is this coming out now?
"Who do you think wiil the replacement for Jerry Jr. Cabarra or Frederson"
by Natrone Means Business on Feb 24, 2011 3:39 PM PST up reply actions
It's coming out now..
…because it’s spring training and a reporter asked him the question. You’ll have to point out the “White Sox are awesome” part of the quote. The thrust of his statement is that in July the White Sox will sign players, not have a fire sale.
“Here, we’ve got an owner (Jerry Reinsdorf) who’s trying his rear end off. He gives us all the resources to compete. As a player, you can’t ask for anything else. If we’re in this (pennant race) in July, if we need something, it will happen. That’s an incredible place to be as a player. In baseball, anything can happen. But we don’t need a Cinderella story to come true to win the World Series.”
In other words, my team has money and can buy a championship, while the Padres don’t, and must rely on Cinderella magic to win a championship.
"Who do you think wiil the replacement for Jerry Jr. Cabarra or Frederson"
by Natrone Means Business on Feb 24, 2011 4:04 PM PST up reply actions
And...?
The White Sox do have money (or are willing to spend it). The Padres don’t. The Padres probably caught that Cinderella lightning in a bottle last year. I’d love to see it again, but I’m doubtful. Where exactly is he wrong or being a dick? Someone says something slightly derogatory, but true, about your team and you’re offended? Do you think he’d have wanted to leave if SD showed any intention of retaining good players? They gave him the big $50M contract, then later had buyer’s remorse (new ownership).
(Actually, the Padres had a larger profit than the Sox in ‘09, so it’s clear Chicago willing to dig deeper into their pockets.)
I get what he is saying, and I agree, the Sox have more money to spend on talent and they spend it, and that’s great for the Sox and Peavy. But why not leave it at that? I feel like he’s looking down on the Padres, and taking a shit on them while he’s at it, and that’s what offends me. Why discount the players that played behind you all those years in SD? It takes more than 1 guy to win ball games, those guys may not have been big names but they played hard behind him.

Chill Padres fans. Jake didn’t exactly pull a LeBron on the Padres. And what he’s saying is true. The White Sox have deeper pockets and the Padres have to play with the deck stacked against them. Why all the hate? It’s unfounded and reeks of homerism.
Just remember when he was here and how he was a great pitcher for us and wish him the best. And if there’s an interleague game when he starts, I hope he gets an ND or a loss. But not because I hate him.

Okay fine. You feel that way. I don’t. I can see where he was coming from and while it wasn’t great, he didn’t say that San Diego was a dump and anyone who is a Padre fan is dumb as a box of rocks.
He gave an opinion. He was here and we loved him, now he’s gone and according to the OP, he was a choker who couldn’t win the big one and worse?
I don’t understand it. This wasn’t Kevin Brown moving closer to home by moving to LA or Jim Leyritz and Jack Clark ripping Tony Gwynn on their ways out. THOSE three guys were assholes for leaving the way they left.

I know that. But don’t you remember all the talk in 1999 about how he wanted to sign closer to home and then instead if signing with Atlanta as many thought, he went to LA for the money. That was worse than what Peavy did above. Or were you not one of the fans throwing money on the field during his first start with the Dodgers.

I was not...I was one of the people giving him a standing ovation.
Without him….no 1998 World Series.
Yes, he did want to be closer to home….and then the Dodgers lost their minds and offered him a contract so ridiculous he couldn’t turn it down.
I was too. I didn’t like that he said he wanted to pitch closer to home and then the damn Dodgers gave him that huge contract that made Scott Boras pop a cork in his pants, but in the end, I couldn’t blame him, I remembered the one magical year he pitched here and stood and applauded.

The article is written. It’s not like a sound bite where you can hear what the reporter is asking. You can’t say for sure whether or not he was probed or coerced or just spoke freely without provication.
Look, it’s obvious you love the Pads and will come to the defense of anyone who trashes them. But in the end, what matters? What a White Sox player said about the Padres he played for three years ago or the team as it goes into the season?
In other words, what is done is done and the Padres made out pretty well in the Peavy deal so far. That is what matters here.

It seems as if some fans just turned on a dime against one of the Padres’ finest pitchers in franchise history because of this article.

and now this. A halfhearted attempt to justify yourself and your point of view by asking me who the hell I am.Actually, that’s not what that was at all. It had nothing to do with my point; it had everything to do with the fact that you don’t have the right to tell me what I should do, the same as I don’t have the right to tell you what to do.
When you’ve gone all over this topic and spewed your retoric [sic] over something that I disagree with and was looking for a discussion.Huh?
You’ve made it perfectly clear that you are unable to discuss this or anything without going to extremes.“Or anything”? Really? Talk about rhetoric…
I know your stance now.Have you seen Drama’s? It’s wide.
You can have it.I sure can. With or without your permission or blessing.

I don't know why, but when TTG is p.o.'d
I can see him looking like this:

Did I?
Here is the article. It’s referenced above in text of this article. Tim Sullivan interviewed Peavy:
http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/2011/feb/23/peavy-catches-his-former-teammates-playing-catch/
I’ll say it again:
There is nothing in that article that says whether Peavy was asked anything at all about the subject or if he brought it up on his own.

So, jerkoff, how's that linguine noodle hanging from your right sleeve doing?

What I read...
When talking about KT and “I didn’t know how we were winning games” was more of a testament to the job KT and the staff did pulling this team together when they WERE outmanned and still managed to win the NL West 2 out of 3 years and one game away from making it 3 of 4.
It’s not hate, the guy pitched his ass off here and now he’s gone. And the Padres have made the most of it. Face it, a lot of outsiders don’t think much of this team this coming season and didn’t think much last season. But we all know how that went.
So it’s an ex-player being critical. Who cares? It’s all about the 25 who will wear Padres jerseys this year.

TTG is giving me a PFOB
Eff you, Jake. I have a jersey-shirt with your name on it that I intend to defile now. Actually, defile’s not the right word for it. I’ll be correcting the name from Peavy to either Vander Wal or Show. Tough choice. Vander Wal had a good postseason in ‘98, but Show had a much longer and better career with the Padres. Show also changed his number after 2 seasons of 44. I could use McCovey too, but then everyone would call me a Giants lover. I’m leaning Show.

As mentioned before.
Put Poreda. It adds in insults considering we got him for Peavy
I BELIEVE[d].

Translation...
Jake drank all the Jager in San Diego dry and it was time to move on.
Jake’s a lost cause. Just hoping Latos doesn’t turn on us like Jake did.
Mat Latos is the real deal...Go Lakers, Pads, and Bolts

Reponeded?
What, you take a couple fancy pictures and that means you can be avant-garde and make up words now?
It literally took me 15 seconds of staring at the word to realize I had to unscramble it for it to say “reopened”. Do I win a cool prize now for solving your comment?!?!?!?
Why ask a failed romance to come watch your successful one? You know, that's like inviting the Seattle Mariners to a World Series game. It's just weird for everyone.
You mean having your day made isn't a good enough prize?!
Kids these days I tell ya. So ungrateful.

Nope
Plus, fixing mistakes doesn’t really make my day.
But getting free stuff? Totally does.
