Peavy went five innings Saturday, giving up one run on four hits while walking three and striking out three in the win over the Padres. Peavy pitched well in his final start of the regular season, but he didn't last long enough to factor into the decision. After a rough start with the Red Sox (1-9, 4.72 ERA), the veteran right-hander has been revitalized after being acquired by the Giants at the trade deadline (6-4, 2.17 ERA). Peavy's season is a classic example of what going from a hitter's park in the American League to a pitcher's park in the National League can do for a pitcher's statistics. The Giants are hoping this wasn't his last start for them this year, but either way, there is a good chance Peavy extends his player option to rejoin the club in 2015.
