Didnt the Sox beat up on Iwakuma out in seattle?

Everyone's been beating him up for about a month or so now...

4.96 ERA since mid june...opponents sporting a .800 OPS against him....and it'd look a lot worse had he not had back to back starts against the Astros and Twins in his last 2....

Padres In Active Discussions For Ian Kennedy

By Tim Dierkes [July 31 at 12:34pm CST]
28-year-old Diamondbacks righty Ian Kennedy is having an off year, but could be a popular trade target since he's under team control through 2015 as an arbitration eligible player. The latest:

• The Padres are getting closer to a deal for Kennedy, tweets [ame="[MEDIA=twitter]362628110950219777[/MEDIA]"]Jon Heyman of CBS Sports[/ame].
• There are legs to the Kennedy to San Diego rumors, tweets [ame="[MEDIA=twitter]362627082922110976[/MEDIA]"]Yahoo's Jeff Passan[/ame], who says Thatcher would be one of the players going to Arizona. The Padres are in active discussions to acquire Kennedy, tweets [ame="[MEDIA=twitter]362627312203735040[/MEDIA]"]Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports[/ame]. Speaking on 620 KTAR today, D'Backs GM Kevin Towers said, "I'm fairly confident that there will be some trade news involving the Diamondbacks probably by the end of the day."
• Kennedy to the Padres "could happen," hears [ame="[MEDIA=twitter]362621857393942528[/MEDIA]"]Danny Knobler of CBS Sports[/ame].
• The D'Backs could move Kennedy as a way to improve the back end of their bullpen, writes Scott Miller of CBS Sports. They've inquired with the Padres on Luke Gregerson and Joe Thatcher.

Earlier Updates

• The D'Backs are still considering offers for Kennedy even with potential replacement Jake Peavy landing in Boston, tweets [ame="[MEDIA=twitter]362579862277455872[/MEDIA]"]Jon Heyman of CBS Sports[/ame]. The Angels would love Kennedy and the Padres are also in.

Superfan...

I've never been so happy to be wrong in my life. Then I saw Thatcher and Gregerson were part of the deal. What a relief.

 

[Down38st8]

any indication when Peavy will make his debut?

 

[HammerDown]

adam kennedy, lol

wasnt he on their 2002 championship team?

Yes, he was the one injecting Daren Erstad, Troy Glaus and Tim Salmon in bathroom stalls before games.

 

[Rock Strongo]

career angel?

yeah, i didnt get that either

 

[HammerDown]

Kennedy has a 5.23 ERA this year. In other words, our new ace.

 

[RedSoxWorrld]

any indication when Peavy will make his debut?

not that I've read but saw something that he'd likely be replacing Workman, so that would mean Sunday

"Ted Kennedy's dead,how can he pitch for us?"

Troy Glaus, swear that every time he had an at bat at Fenway he went deep

Between him and Vernon WElls (when he didnt suck) two guys I never wanted to see with a bat in Fenway
