QUOTE (Lemon_44 @ Jul 24, 2013 -> 08:58 PM) Would Middlebrooks, Ranaudo, and Brentz be enough in people's eyes as a return for Peavy? I want no part of Middlebrooks. Yuck.

QUOTE (NCsoxfan @ Jul 24, 2013 -> 09:00 PM) Looks like Tim Hudson is out for the year (and career?). Have the Braves just entered the Peavy sweepstakes? Not the greatest farm. Especially position players.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 24, 2013 -> 07:55 PM) Rios for Ervin Santana? wat

Whee. I can't wait for some trades to happen.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 24, 2013 -> 01:37 PM) I can't imagine they'd trade Russell. Then I'm not sure they have the pieces. Grant Green would have to be in the mix I'd imagine.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 24, 2013 -> 01:32 PM) A's could be dark horse team for Peavy says Jon Heyman. Addison Russell is a damn fine prospect despite his slow start. Big fan of Sonny Gray. Kind of tepid on Choice. Athletics are an interesting match but not my first choice.

Maybe I should post this here too since the Cards guy posts in this thread. Um. Really hope this isn't accurate. Martinez would be incredible for Alexei. Hell, Sickels has him as 9th best prospect in baseball on his newly released top 75. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseb...0,3745533.story

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 23, 2013 -> 10:49 PM) What do you think we would get from the Red Sox for just Peavy? Cecchini and Swihart would make me do backflips.

QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Jul 23, 2013 -> 10:46 PM) I don't mean to be cryptic. You can expect some action soon. I'm crossing my fingers on some other player movement too. (Rios/Alexei/Reed?)

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 23, 2013 -> 10:40 PM) If their third rated prospect and number 41 in MLB is wishful thinking than we need to start looking elsewhere. Law has him 20. Sickels 30. I'm a big fan of his. I'd agree though, other than Cecchini the position players in that system are lackluster considering Bogaerts and Bradley aren't going anywhere. They do have plenty of really solid pitching prospects though.

If Rick could pry Cecchini from Boston I would be ecstatic. Anything else would be a bonus.

QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Jul 23, 2013 -> 10:03 PM) Jake to Beantown has legs. They have plenty of pitching prospects. Owens, Barnes, Webster, Ranaudo, Workman, Britton etc. I would love Cecchini but I have a feeling that it's wishful thinking. Other than that I like Swihart and Mookie. Not huge on Brentz, Iglesias, or Marrero though.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 23, 2013 -> 09:51 PM) Hawk mentioning the fans would understand trading a couple of guys and playing for 2015 pretty much makes it official what the plan is. Good. It's the right plan.

Nick Cafardo ‏@nickcafardo 2m Jake Peavy remains a pitcher of great interest to the Red Sox especially now that they know Buchholz might be a ways away from returning. Expand

Nick Cafardo ‏@nickcafardo 48s If Jesse Crain comes off the disabled list this weekend, the Red Sox will be there to scout him. Crain is high atop their wish list. Expand

Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal 1m Big move by #Orioles: Acquire K-Rod from #Brewers for IF Nick Delmonico. Expand

I'd rather have Adams and Wong to be honest. I'd be pretty content with those two as the centerpiece of a deal.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Jul 23, 2013 -> 04:07 PM) I'd love a package built around Blake Swihart, personally. I like Swihart plenty but he's more of an additional piece than a centerpiece at this point.

Dan Hayes ‏@DanHayesCSN 8m One baseball source thought #Rangers overpaid for Matt Garza. Believes #WhiteSox could get a similar haul for Peavy. http://bit.ly/12e3Tp6 View summary
