July 28, 201312 yr QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 11:56 AM) Daryl Van Schouwen @CST_soxvan 7m How close we are to Peavy trade not known. However, source says Oakland, then Texas are top possibilities. Oh wow Texas would be nice.
July 28, 201312 yr Rosenthal just tweeted that Braves are not in on Peavy. Cardinals, O's, Red Sox and A's talking to White Sox.
July 28, 201312 yr @ChrisCotillo: Source: #WhiteSox have discussed Carlos Martinez, Kolten Wong, and Michael Wacha with the #Cardinals in potential Peavy/Ramirez deals.
July 28, 201312 yr All I ask is that if a trade happens and a thread pops up in palehose forum, would somebody please mention it on trade winds too? I have been spending all of my time in trade winds hitting refresh.

I have a hard time fathoming the Cardinals are willing to give up three of their top five prospects in any deal. Just not Cardinals' MO. They promote from within and utilize young players' cheap contracts. Edited July 28, 201312 yr by maggsmaggs

Just not Cardinals' MO. They promote from within and utilize young players' cheap contracts. Probably a combination of 2 of them + other prospects depending on the combination of those 3, or only two of them for Ramirez + Peavy as opposed to 1 w/ multiple other prospects.

July 28, 201312 yr Passan also mentioned the asking price was indeed more than what Texas gave up for Garza.

I don't think we'd get all three of those guys, but Peavy alone should be worth two of them IMO. Regardless, at least we're past the bulls*** phase where we get hourly twitter updates saying no one wants to pay up for Peavy. Clearly there is serious demand for him and I'm more optimistic about getting an extremely strong return than I was a day ago.
July 28, 201312 yr QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 03:31 PM) Wacha and Wong would be awesome Martinez more than Wacha
July 28, 201312 yr QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 12:32 PM) Martinez more than Wacha No way. Wacha looks legit and way more probable to at least stick as a good starter than Martinez. Martinez throws harder but I've read that there is concern he may just be a bullpen guy.
July 28, 201312 yr Martinez has true ace potential. Wacha's ceiling is closer to mid-rotation than top of the rotation
July 28, 201312 yr QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 03:32 PM) Martinez more than Wacha Would be happy with Martinez and Kong and maybe a lesser prospect. But honestly Adams, Wacha, Kelly, Rosenthal all are good too. Cards are stacked.
July 28, 201312 yr QUOTE (bbilek1 @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 03:40 PM) You have to think the Cardinals are seriously involved in the process. If they're not the favorite they're close to it. In the last couple weeks we have heard Adams, Wacha, Martinez, Wong, Kelly, Blazek and maybe more names that I am missing. From the other teams, I think we heard Middlebrooks who was later shut down. Please correct me if I am wrong or missed something here. It's not usually the loud teams that get the big fish. MYSTERY TEAM! Seriously though, have we heard one name from the A's? Yet they are the favorite according to multiple sources.
July 28, 201312 yr QUOTE (kapzk @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 03:40 PM) Just wish the suspense could end right now I would guess he goes tomorrow. Hahn doesn't want drama on the day he's pitching (Tuesday) but wants to hold off as long as possible.
July 28, 201312 yr QUOTE (southside hitman @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 03:43 PM) I would guess he goes tomorrow. Hahn doesn't want drama on the day he's pitching (Tuesday) but wants to hold off as long as possible. I'm thinking later tonight. Seems like things have really heated up today.
July 28, 201312 yr QUOTE (staxx @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 03:44 PM) I'm thinking later tonight. Seems like things have really heated up today. Possibly, but seems like a lot of that news was bulls*** from Levine's article this morning.
July 28, 201312 yr QUOTE (southside hitman @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 12:45 PM) Possibly, but seems like a lot of that news was bulls*** from Levine's article this morning. We are hearing actual teams and prospect names today, though. And I don think Peavy would say he felt like today was his last day and bring all the luggage if Hahn didn't tell him that something was up.

For a Peavy/Ramirez deal to STL, I can see this combo: Choose one of: Matt Adams Carlos Martinez Kolten Wong Michael Wacha Choose two of: Tyrell Jenkins John Gast Carson Kelly Michael Blazek Choose one of: Seth Blair Charlie Tilson James Ramsey Eric Fornataro Jordan Swagerty Tim Cooney Wong, Jenkins, Kelly, & Blair for Peavy/Ramirez would be my pick
July 28, 201312 yr QUOTE (bbilek1 @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 01:49 PM) If Jake gets traded when I am work tonight I will be really pissed. Well that is quite selfish of you

Adams. Jenkins. Kelly. Ramsey.
