hogan873 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 QUOTE (G&T @ May 21, 2009 -> 08:05 AM) That's fine, but the Sox are not making this deal as a "shot across the bow" of the Cubs. Right. And as far as I'm concerned I don't give a damn about the Cubs. But can you imagine the uproar in the Cubs-friendly media if this deal goes down?

DBAHO Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 QUOTE (POPPY_HIDALGO @ May 21, 2009 -> 08:05 AM) Bring that over to the AL and see how it pans out. The AL is far superior... Let's just hope they don't give up too much for a guy that can't save a season all by himself. Sick of hearing that argument, there are plenty of pitchers who have changed leagues there and done just fine. If anything it would be going from PETCO to the Cell that would inflate Peavy's numbers, not changing leagues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything it would be going from PETCO to the Cell that would inflate Peavy's numbers, not changing leagues. Pet Co. to the cell is a major difference. Not to mention the fact that the guy has been having arm trouble and is owed more money than I can imagine the White Sox wanting to spend. You know they lost money last year and the chairman is none to happy. If the Sox get Peavy, I'll leave the boards forever. I'm so confident in this move not happenoing that I'll bow out gracefully and never log in again. I said. I'm all in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 The interesting thing is that San Diego would be about $6 mil under their owner mandated number, could cash also be involved? http://www3.signonsandiego.com/stories/200...te-sox-may-be-/ Peavy trade to White Sox may be near Padres' ace would need to consent to deal By Tom Krasovic Union-Tribune Staff Writer 11:48 p.m. May 20, 2009 Padres pitcher Jake Peavy pumps his fist after closing out the ninth inning of Sunday's 3-1 victory over the Reds. (AP Photo/Denis Poroy) - A team from Chicago is showing interest in trading four players for Jake Peavy – but for now, it's not the Cubs. It's the White Sox. According to Padres personnel, Peavy met with Padres manager Bud Black late Wednesday night to discuss a trade overture from the Sox. Peavy, whose consent would be needed for a trade to any club, declined all comment after meeting with Black. Within the clubhouse, though, Peavy referred to the situation as “something to think about” yet also restated his desire to stay in the National League. One of Peavy's teammates said he believes Peavy respects the Sox's aggressiveness in pushing for him but may have reservations about pitching for Ozzie Guillen, the White Sox's volatile manager. The Cubs and Padres were deep into trade talks in December, but the Cubs walked away, said Padres General Manager Kevin Towers. The Padres are about $5 million above the $40 million player payroll that Towers said the club's majority owner, John Moores, has mandated for this season and could hit that number by moving Peavy, who is due $11 million this season.

ThunderBolt Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 (edited) Have we reached any consensus on the players? We talking CR/AP, Shelby, ETC. Or any of the premier offensive prospects? IF we're trading Richard and Poreda something tells me this organization really loves Dan Hudson, or it's all about Peavy which is badass in and of itself.

Great contract, and Alexei would be a good fit for that ballpark. However, he does not fit the Moneyball type of approach they've got going on out their.

southsider2k5 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 The Score is actually saying Jermaine Dye is in the proposed Deal. That means the Sox are only adding 5-6 million dollars this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBAHO Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 If anything, I'd see em more interested in Getz than Alexei actually. It's not like Alexei would be able to hit his 20HR's a season playing half his game in that ballclub. Getz could be a long-term #2 hitter for that team with his ability to get on base (although he hasn't shown that thus far). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
