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

lol

QUOTE (Big Hurtin @ Jul 22, 2013 -> 08:23 PM) I think he will still be with the White Sox in August because "the right deal wasn't there." I sure hope that isn't the case. I've had enough of the organization holding onto guys just long enough to denude their value.

I'd sure love to hear what's on the table for Peavy at this point.

Beck with THREE strikeouts in THREE innings. Do more of this dude.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 22, 2013 -> 06:25 PM) Source? Peter Gammons ‏@pgammo 18m Garza haul of Edwards, Olt, Grimm and the chance to take N. Ramirez as PTBNL a boom for Cubs, statement about Tex. system Expand

Gordon Wittenmyer ‏@GDubCub 5m Olt to be assigned to Iowa. Grimm too. Edwards to A Daytona. And TWO ptbnl's in deal. Retweeted by Chris De Luca Expand

Sounds like the PTBNL could be Neil Ramirez. Fantastic return if true.

Buster Olney ‏@Buster_ESPN 2m The fact that Oakland was brought into the Garza talks Friday by the Cubs tells you they didn't have a lot of serious interest besides TEX. Expand

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 22, 2013 -> 04:20 PM) Wouldn't be shocked if it's Sardinas That would be a hell of a return for a Garza rental.

I wonder who the 3rd player is. Either way CJ Edwards is legit. Jury is still out on Olt.

Sucks. Texas was a pretty good match. Hopefully Arizona still wants Jake.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Jul 22, 2013 -> 02:44 PM) Love Swihart. Wonder if he's available in a Peavy deal. I'd imagine so. I'm also a fan of his.

Nick Cafardo ‏@nickcafardo 5m We hear Red Sox prefer peavy over garza but remain active in talks on both. Much will hinge on buchholz second opinion with dr Andrews Expand

I hope the Sox keep losing. Trade off parts to fortify the farm and then add a big fat top 3 draft prospect into the fold. Build something more sustainable even if it takes a few down seasons.

QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Jul 21, 2013 -> 09:05 PM) It's early in this dance with Texas. I will say Peavy should command more than they would send for Garza. I really would like Odor. He's one of my favorite prospects. Sardinas is nice. Nick Williams is the definition of a White Sox pospect as well. They also have some great pitching in Luke Jackson and Edwards.

QUOTE (mike65 @ Jul 21, 2013 -> 08:38 PM) I read somewhere today that Towers said that the DBacks can't or won't take on any new payroll. If the DBacks weren't there for Peavy, I would assume they were there for Lindstrom? They have had their share of bullpen issues. If it really turns out that the Yanks, Orioles, Red Sox, and Cards were the ones there for Peavy, how do you guys think that this will play out? Red Sox and Cards match up best as far as prospects go. I don't think Baltimore has the pieces unless they are willing to give up Gausman and/or Bundy (who just had TJ as well). The Yanks farm system ain't so hot either other than Gary Sanchez.

Evan Gattis. You looked foolish.

Castellanos. I don't understand the Avisail love at all.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 21, 2013 -> 12:59 PM) FWIW, I prefer Chris Owings to Matt Davidson...but why not both? I'd love it. Throw in a reliever if you have to.
