The Real Reason Jake Peavy Rejected the White Sox Trade

Written by Bob Biscigliano

As everyone knows already, the San Diego Padres and the Chicago White Sox reached an agreement that would have sent 2007 Cy Young winner, Jake Peavy to the South Side of Chicago for Clayton Richard and top pitching prospect Aaron Poreda. However, the Padres needed Peavy to waive his no-trade clause in his contract. Peavy refused. He announced yesterday that he would not waive his no-trade clause and that he wanted to stay in San Diego "as of right now."

There are a number of reasons circulating why he didn't accept this deal that would send him to a team that was in the playoffs last season and would potentially have one of the filthiest rotations in the AL with the addition of him (Peavy, Beurhle, Danks, Floyd sounds good to me). One of the main reasons that is swirling around the rumor mill is that Peavy wants to stay in the NL where he can hit (which really means, "I'll be a more successful pitcher in the NL").

However, thanks to a tip from a person close to the situation, Hank Hammerpipe, the real reason has been surfaced.

Peavy doesn't want to be anywhere near, let alone on the same team, as A.J. Pierzynski's atrocious hair.

We pick on A.J. a lot here, and for good reason, but we don't stress enough how awful his frosty-do really is. For your information, he dyed his hair because he said he WON a bet with teammate Jim Thome. Really? WON a bet? That sounds like the kind of bet a couple of chicks would make:

Girl #1: Okay, if I find a better sale than you did, you have to pay for me to get my hair done!!!

Girl #2: Ohhh you're bad. You're on!

Only a MLB'er like Pierzynski would Jermaine Dye his hair an unorthodox color when he WINS a bet and then keep re-doing it when the roots start filling in.

So White Sox fans, you can thank your douchey catcher for this trade falling through.

Jake Peavy is a man's man and wanted nothing to do with this lady type of shit.

ajs terrible hair

it must suck living in Detroit... I mean your pro sports teams suck and u have nothing better to write about the AJ Pierzynski's hair color. Are you so board that you photo shop pictures of AJ to pass the time?

Oh yea I forgot you have the red wings in Detroit but who watches hockey anyways?

Ah, I was wondering when our first overly sensitive AJ/White Sox fan would reply. You come out of the gate with some really intelligent "must suck living in Detroit" and "your teams suck" comments (conveniently forgetting the Red Wings and not to mention, the first place Tigers).

Then you overlook the rest of this blog where we have hundreds, if not thousands now, of other posts where we HAVEN'T wasted our time on a douche like AJ Pierzysnki.

Also, I hate to nitpick here, and I know junior school homonyms can be tricky, but it's BORED not BOARD.

I have to go now. There's a Red Wings game on at 8 PM that I'm going to watch, as will millions of others. G'day

Give the 14 year old some credit, he correctly spelled A.J.'s last name, no small feet you no.

Justin, did you see the game between the Detroit Red Wings and the Chicago Blackhawks at the United Center in Chicago last night? Well, I did, and it looked like there are a whole lot of people in the city of Chicago alone, for one, who DO watch hockey (not to mention the millions watching on TV.) So discredit the Red Wings as much as you want, but hockey is still one of the four major sports, people around the country including in Chicago DO care about it, and the Red WIngs have been the most dominant team in the NHL the last two decades. Also, the Tigers are up 6.5 games and counting on your beloved White Sox. So if our teams "suck", yours are God-awful.
