QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 31, 2013 -> 09:00 AM) Rios had his bags packed monday essentially so if his foot checks out I would be shocked if he wasnt gone. Heard no chatter on Reed, Dunn and De Aza whatsoever really hope your spot on here Rock. Is Pitt the only team your hearing involved or are there other teams?

Really hope we can swing Alexei and Rios to Pirates and eat a bunch of money we saved by not giving Boston anything

QUOTE (whitesox901 @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 11:24 PM) In theory: with the money they saved with the Peavy deal, the Sox can now eat money in a Rios, and Ramirez, trade right? Supposedly bucket was "hinting" at this in the peavy thread

Want to spin this very positively for yourself? We essentially traded Clayton Richard for Avisail Garcia! Or many of us doubted we'd even resign Jake last offseason and he'd walk away, so in the case we got Avisail for nothing.. All kidding aside count me in as one who likes the deal but I've also loved Garcia since seeing him last year

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 11:25 PM) He has to be #1. And sadly it's not even close

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 11:22 PM) Grimm and Olt are both AAAA players to me Is it a consensus Garcia > olt?

John Gambadoro ‏@Gambo620 7m Again hearing its extremely unlikely the Dbacks will trade for Jake Peavy. not sure how reliable this guy is but he does have 13.4K followers on twitter

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 03:21 PM) 101 ESPN just said STL is out on Peavy. I think Arizona is the destination. Heres to hoping Owings and Davidson are heading our way

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 03:21 PM) 101 ESPN just said STL is out on Peavy.

Joel Sherman ‏@Joelsherman1 1m Peavy field appears to be #Cardinals #Redsox #Athletics #Diamondbacks. #Whitesox despite posturing are committed to move him.

really getting the feeling that Jake will end up in the desert. alot of fire behind it and Towers is known to over pay so lets see where this ends up

Joel Sherman ‏@Joelsherman1 can confirm what others have reported #Diamondbacks have indeed returned to serious Peavy talks (Towers has history with RH from #Padres)

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 02:28 PM) YOU WERE WRONG our line-up card should be getting release so we should know what is going on, whether a trade or we just send down a pitcher

if we can get Taillon from the Pirates everyone should be singing the praises to Mr. Rick Hahn

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 01:49 PM) Can't we keep the Peavy stuff in the Peavy thread and Rios stuff in the Rios thread?? Feel like I am reading the same thread. Or how about we just have one deadline thread that we can talk about all rumors instead of having to jump back and forth between 2 or 3 threads that is my mistake.. sorry i am getting confused bouncing back in forth between threads. i apologize

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 01:48 PM) I hope Reinsdorf isn't messing this up. it is really disappointing if that is the case

Gordon Edes (a very reliable Red Sox reporter) just tweeted that Arizona has emerged as front runner for Peavy per source Gordon Edes ‏@GordonEdes 3m Source: Arizona emerges as front runner for Peavy

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 01:36 PM) The common theme in all of this is cash. It's going to be interesting what they do, and what rumors come out afterwards on what they could have done. really hoping if it comes down to it in the last hour Uncle Jerry caves and realizes it is worth giving up the Cash to get the prospects back that this organization desperately needs. If we can swing Peavy, Rios and Ramirez for a solid return of spects and a top 5 pick in the draft next year, we could turn around our farm system in a hurry

everyone jumping on the Dbacks and Peavy talk. Buster Onley just tweeted it. Who would we want/hope for from them

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 01:19 PM) https://twitter.com/ChiTribRogers/status/362276040808202240 No, Phil. Go away. Knobbler, Heyman, Rosenthal all mentioning Dbacks back interested in Peavy

QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 01:15 PM) Interesting. What's the rule on that; before first pitch? id assume by the time they fill out the line up card we should know a lot more

QUOTE (Mr. Showtime @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 01:08 PM) Ken has been all over the place on Peavy the past few days. Either things are changing by the hour, or it's just a bunch of smoke out there and he's getting some bad info. very true. either way there has to be a roster move within the next 4 hours to make room for Reinzo. whether it is sending down someone like Trancoso or a trade

Rosenthal says to not rule out Dbacks on Peavy. Keep in mind Rosenthal has always been all over the White Sox when it comes to trades

If Hahn really is discussing Peavy and Alexei witht the Pirates he is playing this perfectly to get the Cards to bite on those two.. and then he can come back to the Pirates and say well the Cards just greatly improved there club, you guys sure could use Alex Rios now couldnt you.

One thing to note on Rosenthal tweet.. he mentioned no talks between Sox and Cards in regards to Peavy.. left the door wide open they could be discussing Alexei
