Jake Peavy and the Twins Deny the White Sox

TALK ABOUT A DOWNER OF A DAY, it doesn't get much worse for a team to get thumped by a division rival and then turned down on a trade approval, but that's exactly what happened to the White Sox today. The Twins had been struggling, especially after those three consecutive walk-off losses to the Yanks, so they pretty much took it out on the Sox, crushing them 20-1. Then the Sox get the news that Padres ace Jake Peavy rejects their trade offer. It makes you wonder how it all unfolded. Was Peavy sitting in the clubhouse watching Sportscenter replay highlights of the Twins/Sox blowout and taking a sweet-talk call from White Sox GM Kenny Williams? Probably not, but today's news was nothing short of comical genius.
