July 30, 201312 yr If this is what it's come down to, I'll give $25 to help expedite the trade I wouldn't pay $25 unless it's for a three way.
July 30, 201312 yr Im really hoping to strike a deal with AZ. They have so much of what we need down in their farm. Hell I would pay the remaining cost of his 2013 salary to strike a deal.

July 30, 201312 yr QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 09:40 PM) Of course we don't know what the asking price really was. If it was a Garz package, this isn't good. If it was 2 elite prospects, they could be coming down to something both can work with. I may be a cynic, but my guess is the "asking price" isn't about talent as much as $. The more a team will pay, the lesser the 2 prospects they have to give the Sox? Full disclosure. ... didn't a lot of you on here say money wouldn't be a factor w/Peavy and teams would be getting a bargain and would pay the entire remainder of his contract?

July 30, 201312 yr QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 04:34 PM) How much money are the Sox willing to pay on Peavy/Rios? 1/3 of their remaining deals? Anybody know? About as much as you spent on White Sox tickets at USCF this year.
July 30, 201312 yr So are we starting a kickstarter campaign? Donate money to the trade X player fund?
July 30, 201312 yr So this is my take. Jake peavy to the Arizona Diamondbacks Whitesox get: SS- Chris Owings SP- David Holmberg OF- Jason Kubel C- Stryker Trahan Arizona gets: SP- Jake Peavy Cash considerations Alex Rios and Alexi Rameriez to Pittsburgh Whitesox get: SP: Jamison Tailison OF: Barett Barnes 1 or 2 low-A guys Pittsburgh gets: SS- Alexi Rameriez OF- Alex Rios Cash considerations Matt Lindstrom to Boston Whitesox get: SP:Anthkny Ranuado Boston gets: RP- Matt Lindstrom

July 30, 201312 yr QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 04:17 PM) The Peavy thing has come too far to fall apart now. Not starting him tonight and all that. It'd be embarrassing for Hahn to keep Peavy now. It'd be like he couldn't get a deal done. The tricky part is the money. I bet Jerry has told him exactly how much of the salary of Peavy/Rios he's allowed to pay. Let me sum up the last 177 pages for you... Nobody knows a damn thing about what's going to happen. Carry on.
July 30, 201312 yr QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 04:50 PM) Taillon is a pipe dream, my friends. Please do not get your hopes up. My hopes aren't up, but it was the Pirates guy who mentioned his name in a deal. I would Fing love if Rick was able to pull it off

July 30, 201312 yr QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 04:54 PM) Some Twitter sources said a package had been discussed, though, not that the Pirates offered it. And Jake Peavy was involved, not Alex freaking Rios.

July 30, 201312 yr How funny would it be if Towers unloads Kennedy with the expectation to acquire Peavy and then we trade him to St. Louis or Boston. It'd be a cycle of douchebaggery at the deadline!
