White Sox Pitcher Gavin Floyd Out For the Season

Major League Baseball(NEW YORK) -- The Chicago White Sox received some bad news Monday, as they learned that starting pitcher Gavin Floyd will miss the rest of the season with an elbow injury.

Floyd injured his right elbow April 27 against the Tampa Bay Rays. His surgery will be performed by Dr. David Altcheck in New York City.

Despite seeking multiple opinions from numerous doctors, surgery was unavoidable. He will have surgery to repair the tear in his flexor muscle near his right elbow, and will also have his ulnar collateral ligament repaired. Recovery time is typically 14 to 19 months.

The 30-year-old Floyd is in the final year of his contract with the White Sox, and his time with the team may be coming to an end.

Floyd has been with the White Sox since 2007, and has gone 70-70 with a 4.48 ERA since his rookie year in 2004.

White Sox Pitcher Jake Peavy Expected to Make Wednesday Start

Mike McGinnis/Getty Images(NEW YORK) -- White Sox pitcher Jake Peavy plans on making his next start on Wednesday against the New York Mets.

Peavy has not pitched since April 26 after his back stiffened up while warming up.

"[Sunday] I really threw for the first time without it grabbing me pretty hard," Peavy told reporters, according to The Chicago Tribune. "Two days ago it was still grabbing me pretty hard, and I had to be relatively pain-free two days prior to me pitching. That was two days ago. If I was pitching [Monday], I wasn't ready.

"But the way I felt today, with a few more days of treatment, I can't see Wednesday night I won't be on cue," Peavy continued.

Peavy has made five starts this season and  is 3-1 with a 3.38 ERA.

Nationals Complete Sweep Of White Sox 

Rob Carr/Getty Images(WASHINGTON) --  The Washington Nationals are off to a fast start this season.

Ryan Zimmerman blasted a two-run double, Bryce Harper continued his hot hitting and the Nationals slugged their way past the Chicago White Sox 7-4 on Thursday afternoon.

Harper went 2-for-3 with two RBI's and two runs scored for the Nationals (7-2), who have won seven of their first nine games to start the season.

"Obviously, they're showing a lot of respect for Bryce, 10 days into the season," Nationals starter Dan Haren said after picking up his first win of the season. "I mean, he's special. Our lineup's really good, though. There's no soft spots."

Dylan Axelrod took the loss for the White Sox.

Sale Agrees to New Contract with White Sox

Christian Petersen/Getty Images(GLENDALE, Ariz.) -- Starting pitcher Chris Sale and the Chicago White Sox agreed to a five-year contract on Thursday, worth $32.5 million.  

Under the terms of the new deal, Sale will receive $850,000 this season, $3.5 million in 2014, $6.0 million in 2015, $9.15 million in 2016 and $12 million in 2017. The Sox hold club options for the 2018 season at $12.5 million and for 2019 at 13.5 million. If Chicago decides to decline either option, Sale will be paid a one million dollar buyout.

In his first full season as a starter last year, the left hander went 17-8 with a 3.05 ERA. He also struck out 192 batters in 192 innings of work.

Chicago selected Sale with the 13th overall pick in the 2010 MLB First-Year Player Draft.
