If the A's are to make a deal for Peavy, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle sees outfielder Michael Choice as the potential centerpiece.  Otherwise, they could add a reliever.  GM Billy Beane says this is the "lowest trade inventory I've seen in years."

 

 

Reactions?

 

Agree, thats why player values are so high in trades, because there are quite a few buyers and not many players on the market. Supply and demand benefiting the Sox.

 

Slusser can take Choice and pound sand.

"If tossing in a reliever doesn't get it done we do have a few buckets of raw sewage laying around from the clubhouse flood or perhaps I could interest Mr. Hahn in a nice prince Albert? I can use this rusty screwdriver I found behind that dumpster."

Skaggs and Owings would be a great start to a trade

Absolutely. Not a fan of getting Holmberg back unless he's the 3rd guy but I highly doubt that would be the case.

Olney throwing Tyler Skaggs name into the pot now too. If that meant excluding either Owings or Davidson...no thanks.

 

Sox are going all LHP rotation. Skaggs is a great talent, hasn't put it together on the ML level, but his raw stuff is there. Tremendous talent and would give the Sox a further position of strength to deal from in the rotation.

Davidson and Owens are blocked in AZ by Prado and Didi. So possible we could pry them loose for Peavy and someone?

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

 

I am sure they will include everyone. It's when they get scratched is the time to get excited

Not concerned about Skaggs?

 

I'm not all that enamored with Skaggs. He's a young lefty with good upside...but like I said...if it meant not getting Davidson...no thanks.

Let's just say that if the end of the world happens and Hahn gets Skaggs, Davidson, Owens and Taillon for Peavy, Rios and Ramirez, then Hahn has a job for life here.

Ha! Why not Adams and Martinez from St. Louis too?

I am not sure what the fascination with Holmberg is around here. Is it because he was a former Sox farmhand? People like names they know I guess. His 6.2 K/9 in AA doesn't really excite me.

 

I agree. He's going to be a OK rotation starter, not a ton of upside.
